On Tuesday November 3, 2020 from 7:00am-7:00pm the Town of Bedford will conduct the general election on the campus of Bedford High School. This will bring an anticipated 10,000 people to the polling location. In an effort to move the significant number of vehicles on and off of the campus as efficiently as possible there will be a new traffic pattern implemented that creates a continuous traffic flow.

Nashua Road southbound from Route 101 will be reduced to one lane near the Bedford High School entrance and will only allow vehicles to enter the campus. The left turn lane from Nashua Road southbound to County Road and the straight lane across the intersection will be closed. Vehicles exiting the campus will be permitted to turn right to travel southbound on Nashua Road or straight across to County Road. Vehicles exiting the campus will not be permitted to make a left turn.

Nashua Road northbound from Gage Road to the entrance of the Bedford Bluffs will be closed to local traffic only. Nashua Road northbound at the entrance to the Bedford Bluffs will be closed and vehicles will not be permitted into the intersection to travel in any direction. Vehicles in this area will be redirected to either use Gage Road to Liberty Hill Road or Nashua Road to Wallace Road to access Route 101. Voters will be directed from Nashua Road northbound onto Gage Road, left onto Liberty Hill, left onto County and into the Bedford High School Campus.
