  • Chapter Eight
    Chapter 8: TRANSPORTATION Almost all of the transportation in Ossipee involves automobiles, therefore the network of roads is very important. State highway Route 16 goes north and south the entire length of Ossipee. There are three important intersections: West Ossipee, at the intersection of Route 16 and 25 West, in Center Ossipee, the intersection with Route 25E, and in Ossipee, the intersection of Route 16 and 28. Route 16 is also used extensively by people traveling to other parts of the state. These are often tourists or vacationers who stop for travel necessities like food and gasoline. The easy access has fostered commercial development of businesses and small industries. Other parts of the route are scenic and undeveloped. Although much of Route 16 is zoned Commercial and Roadside Commercial or Commercial Node, most residents of Ossipee want this entrance to Ossipee to be rural and attractive. The increasing amount of traffic and the need to keep the traffic flowing are factors to be considered. Recent attempts to keep the number of accidents down include the installation of traffic lights at the intersections of Route 16 and 25W and Route 16 and Route 28. The establishment of the Corridor Zone is intended to keep low volume traffic businesses along the highway, and high traffic businesses like fast food restaurants at the intersections. Another attempt to keep traffic moving, emphasized in the NH Route 16 Corridor Study, was the need to limit the number of accesses onto the highway. The intention is to encourage the creation of shared access roads to and from the highway, instead of multiple separate driveways, so that several places use the same access.

    The Story of the Chocorua Dam and Park The Chocorua Dam Chocorua Village is defined by the pond and waterfall at its center, visible to everyone who drives by on Route 16. Beneath the glassy surface is the historic wooden Dam, which creates a peaceful pond in the otherwise fast-flowing Chocorua River as it tumbles southward to join Tamworth’s Swift River and the Bearcamp River before flowing into Lake Ossipee. This is one of the last A-frame timber dams in New Hampshire. It was constructed in approximately 1889 by Charles Bowditch, a Boston investor and anthropologist, who spent summers with his family at Lake Chocorua. He purchased the site in 1888, removing the earlier millworks to eliminate the associated pollution and improve the scenic character of the village. The Bowditch family owned the property for 58 years, operating the dam strictly for aesthetic and recreational purposes. Prior to 1889, a series of older dams were located near this site, providing water power for various mills. One of the earliest dams was built around 1785 by the Tamworth Iron Works, which used bog ore dredged from Lake Ossipee to produce iron for the manufacture of chains, augers and nails. From 1946 to 2015 the Dam and residence (on what is now Route 113) were owned by Raymond and Edna Flanagan, who first ran it as the Spruce Up Inn . They performed repairs on the Dam as recently as 1978 and 1989, and after Raymond’s death, Edna continued to live there and look after the Dam. When Edna died, the family attempted to sell the property, but were unable to find a buyer willing to take responsibility for the Dam.
