FREEPORT — The Maine Department of Transportation will hold a meeting at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 30 at the Freeport Community Center to introduce a plan to address traffic congestion at the Desert Road interchange.
The concept involves the creation of a “divergent diamond” interchange — the first of its kind in Maine, which DOT officials said will be used to address areas with traffic issues.
