"A detour via Routes 111 and 113 (Nashua Road, Hollis and Main streets) was designed to avoid congestion at the potentially dangerous Mill and Main street intersection."

Unfortunatly this detour is largly ignored. The intersection of Mill and Main St is indeed very dangerous and overly congested. Particularly during morning and evening rush hour.

Sooner or later the town will need to acknowlege that this intersection needs a traffic light. Holding onto the idea that our town doesn't have any traffic lights, and we don't want to install the first one, is allowing a hazard to continue to exist. I supposed someone will have to be killed in a crash here before we wake up to current realities.
