"I've been wondering about The Commons for awhile now. Can you tell folks where to park when going there? I assume it's open to the public after that point."

The entrance to the Bedford Village Common is on Bell Hill Road (if you pass the Bedford Public Library heading northwest on Meetinghouse Road onto Bedford Center Road, Bell Hill Road is your first left, and the entrance is on the immediate left, across from the old Stevens-Buswell School (see attached map).
There is also a connecting walkway from the library, near the though town officials and Bedford Police ask residents to avoid parking there for the grand opening celebration, since the library is open during the time of the ceremony.
