Globe South 5 THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2006 No easy access to rail station The Boston Globe rV I II 111 I I mmmmmMSMmm mmMMiMmfli r-mrari TMwamr -J al in nim Waysic 1 Furnitu 2239 Washington Street, Canton, fin mi MDQ, GO (33QB1D OBQ DEDHAM Continuedfrom Page 1 sachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, said, The certainly supports pedestrian access to the station." When completed, Jefferson at Dedham Station, and another development about to start construction next to it, will have about 600 apartments. Dedham officials have required the developer of the second apartment complex, Fairfield Green, to provide pedestrian access to the station as a condition of its zoning permit The developer, Fairfield Residential based in Bethesda, has drafted plans for a crosswalk on Rustcraft Road, according to Kevin Maley, vice president of the company. Fairfield Residential will work with the MBTA to design changes to the station so pedestrians can enter the area from Rust-craft Road and walk across the tracks, added Maley, who worked for Jefferson at Dedham Station when that project was being approved by state and town officials. But the town did not make pedestrian access to the trains a requirement of the permits for Jefferson at Dedham Station. It did, however, mandate that the apartment complex run station shuttle buses, which have been operating in recent weeks.

Dedham has long struggled with the issue of access to Dedham Corporate station from Rustcraft Road. On the one hand, officials have tried to limit access to protect surrounding residential streets from an influx of traffic. On the other hand, barring access is increasingly hard to justify as more businesses and homes locate on Rustcraft Road and Enterprise Drive. A new upscale shopping center, Legacy Place, is being planned not far from the station. The town has required all traffic to and from the apartment buildings to use Enterprise Drive, and there is no access directly onto Rustcraft Road.

Thus, driving to the train station from the apartments means going down Enterprise Drive, south on Providence Highway, and south on Route 128 to the East Street rotary. miMimW-iiiTiiiiaklitinriii ill', hi i ik.ii.,-.
