Let the fun begin ...

From an aside in Chuck's Derby Street post, we learn that the Brookline Traffic Board has asked Newton to make Heath Street a dead end to prevent it from being overrun by traffic attributable to Chestnut Hill Square.

Can't see it happening.

But, the request is likely a harbinger of things to come. Heath Street is but one of many side streets that will suffer from Route 9's inability to absorb the traffic generated by Chestnut Hill Square. (Mine -- Daniel Street -- is on the list.)

Say it with me, folks: 9ZeroZero.
