Growing traffic concerns could lead to a new weight limit for vehicles traveling along Peconic Bay Boulevard in Southold.
Councilwoman Sarah Nappa discussed the idea at a town work session Tuesday, conceding that traffic is a “difficult” issue to address.
“While [a weight limit] will not solve all the problems, it will start to chip away at the problem of trucks and limos being routed that way,” she said, noting that a limit would exclude local deliveries.
