Lizzie’s Owner Against Traffic Changes
I am writing as the owner of Sweet Lizzie’s Bake Shop to express my concern regarding the proposed change to convert our street from a two-way street to a one-way street.
As a small business, we rely heavily on ease of access, visibility, and convenience for our customers. Changing the traffic flow may create confusion, limit accessibility, and reduce the natural flow of pass-by traffic that supports not only my business but others along the street. Many of our customers make quick, spontaneous stops, and any added difficulty in reaching us could discourage those visits.
Additionally, a one-way street could impact parking availability and overall traffic patterns in ways that may unintentionally harm local businesses that are already working hard to serve the community.
I respectfully ask that the town carefully consider the potential economic impact on small businesses before moving forward with this proposal. We value our place in the community and hope to continue serving residents without added barriers.
Thank you for your time and consideration
Elizabeth Khoury, Sweet Lizzie’s Bake shop
