Traffic island garden in Barrington damaged overnight
Garden club: Damage likely done by large truck
A member of the Barrington Garden Club reported damage to a garden located on a traffic island at the intersection of Rumstick Road and County Road.
Police said the damage was discovered early Friday morning, Sept. 22, and may have been caused by a large truck making a delivery to a store in the Barrington Shopping Center.
Police checked with nearby stores, but they could not locate any surveillance footage of the damage. Meanwhile, a member of the garden club reports that this was the third time a vehicle had damaged one of the three traffic island gardens located near the intersection of Rumstick and County. In an email to the Barrington Times, that garden club member posed the question: Does the town need to restrict the use of Bosworth Street by large delivery trucks?
