    Biking in Boston

    Park proper. I was thinking about the Ringer Park improvements project, there's a meeting for it tonight. How close does the van need to get? There's a nice stone wall that borders the entire park so curbside isn't really an option...

    I'm glad to see more and more Vision Zero plans pop up around the state! I know Boston and Brookline are doing their own ones, but the more the better!

    MA Liquor Laws

    I'm not really sure what is easier. Stlin is correct, the total number of licenses is what's really holding things back. The particular type of license does result in some places, like a brewery, from being unable to serve cider or wine alongside its beer. From Notch's website:

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    The existing underpass under the Elliot bridge could use some better lighting, but I haven't felt unsafe when traveling through it. I hope any new underpasses would have decent lighting and some other design features to make folks feel safer, like including those police emergency call box/buttons.

    Why not do every zip code in the city..... The city-owned licenses seem like a great idea, they keep them off the market so it remains affordable to a smaller business owner. By the way, that map is missing the 3 licenses that are going to Oak Square.

    And the RTA, MEVA, has been doing a decent job of trying to improve its service! It went from only being offered 5 days a week to serve those working a more traditional 9-5 to something that's 7 days a week with a slightly longer service period. There's still a lot of opportunity for...

    Biking in Boston

    There's a group that organizes a "critical mass" bike ride. But I'm not sure on the details of it. I don't think it's quite what you're looking for though.

    We should also have one or two in December earlier in that list. I feel like a holiday-market one would be popular.

    I'm not too familiar with the finer details of the legislative process. Why is everything a last-minute scramble? Couldn't they just sign these into law in a couple of weeks when they begin their next session?
