Human Factors; Procedure
Aircraft X was instructed to enter right traffic following [another aircraft] on short final. BED tower wanted to get a departure out prior to Aircraft X's arrival; so they turned Aircraft X to a back course heading making them ODO (Opposite Direction Operations) with Aircraft Y who was on a modified base for sequence to the airport. I was able to turn Aircraft Y away from Aircraft X but had 2.81NM separation at the same altitude.BED tower has repeatedly turned IFR aircraft away from the airport to accommodate their VFR/Departure requirements. Not 20 minutes after my incident; BED tower turned another IFR aircraft away from the airport to modify the sequence. This is very dangerous and some action must happen.
A90 Approach Controller reported a Tower Controller did not coordinate correctly leading to an airborne conflict.
