Lexington Updates Drive-Thru Rules | Lexington News

Lexington’s drive-thru rules just got a major overhaul — the first update since 1983 — thanks to a new state law. Now, fast-food joints need six spots for the main lane plus three extra, while banks and pharmacies only require three. Ninety percent of existing drive-thrus will be affected, though many already have more than enough space. Safety upgrades for pedestrians are also in play, including rules to prevent cars from blocking crosswalks. Plus, a study is underway in the Winchester Road area to improve neighborhood connectivity and safety, with public input recently gathered. And in tech news: new data centers are on hold until at least October 26 as the city reviews local regulations. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
