Abutters near 420 Main St. in Lewiston are having a hearing Wednesday for the city to get input on any concerns with potential traffic pattern changes in that area.
David Hediger, director of planning and code enforcement, said the owner of the Dunkin’ Donuts across from Central Maine Medical Center may be interested in building a new Dunkin’ at that site, currently a vacant lot.
“Nothing specific has been provided at this time,” said Hediger. If a building were to go up, “a center turn lane will be needed to accommodate left turn lanes into the site.”
The site is on the same side of Main Street as CMMC, a few cross streets north, at Main and Whipple streets.
Hediger said it was his understanding that it would replace the Dunkin’ across from CMMC.
The franchise owner, Norm Boulay, said last winter that he was planning to knock that building down and start from scratch later this year.
