To the Editor:

Regarding the letter about mowing Great Bay Boulevard (“Mowing Assails Biodiversity-Rich Great Bay Blvd.” 9/27): Yes, some vegetation will be mowed.

On the other hand, a turtle device designed to keep turtles off of roadway was installed that to this day has not been maintained. It was never installed properly. It’s about 2 to 3 feet off of pavement. Vegetation has grown over it. There is no way for any person, walking, jogging or riding a bike, to move to the shoulder for passing of vehicles.
