If my road is a public way and it is plowed, why isnt it classified as a Town road?

In most cases, private roadways were created as public ways under Barnstable Subdivision Regulations. State law allows towns to plow private ways and the town appropriates funding each year for this service. In order to become a town roadway, residents must petition the town. Most towns in the state stopped accepting new town roadways when Proposition 2 was passed. Barnstable is currently reviewing roadway acceptance policies.
