Seeing these devices around Ellsworth and wondering what they are? We promise … there’s a perfectly good explanation!
These are temporary traffic-counting devices being used by MaineDOT to better understand how vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles move through parts of Ellsworth. The information collected will help with planning and design for the future Main Street Union River Bridge project.
They’re temporary, they’re legitimate, and they’re here to help us plan for the future.
