Monastery Lane concrete road section

[Keith P.]

That section was rebuilt at the time of Quinpool Center's original construction in the late 1970s. The idea was to manage traffic by blocking off the previously-connected Yukon and Yale streets that terminated at Monastery and to install an island on the west exit of the Quinpool Center parking lot that would force traffic exiting to turn left towards Quinpool rather than right towards Allan St. That last tactic failed and soon a chunk of the island was removed, either intentionally or by accident with a snowplow. Truthfully, the whole thing should be re-thought with the experience of 35 years.
