Are these permanent count stations?

I'm not a fan of how the DCR seems to think a 12' shared use path is good enough. For some of the more popular locations, like the SW Corridor, they need to provider separated, high quality paths. Also, DCR should do better at making their meeting materials easily viewable. The SFR meeting is...

Agree. At the meeting, which I don't believe has been posted online yet, the DCR seemed to defend their 12' wide path as being wide enough. I think they should start building 2 paths for the users traveling at VERY different speeds

Does anyone know why the MBTA doesn't allow bikes on the WOR line on the Sunday before the race? To stop overcrowding due to the midnight ride into the city?

The missing crosswalks and unsignalized slip lane in the current condition aren't safe either.

Some people on that mapping tool don't realize the extents of the MPO lol.

So instead of the "ugly" flex-posts, is BTD going to use something tougher, like concrete barriers?

Automated enforcement for school busses seems like it should be something most people would be fine with. If the lights are on and the stop sign is out, passing it should be an automatic fine.

I've been happy with the improvements MEVA has been making over the past couple of years. But yeah I agree with you, the demand isn't quite there yet. As nice as it would be to be able to hop on a train and head to the beach, I don't think this juice is worth the squeeze so to speak. I didn't...

I'm aware, at least they will end up as some nice rail trails. But this is CRAZY TRANSIT pitches thread....let a man dream 😭😭😭

Has anyone here taken a look at CR service along the Merrimack River (E-W from Lowell to Lawrence/Haverhill or Newburyport)?

This is Italian American discrimination!! /s

Wow Brookline is really dragging their feet on bike infrastructure...

I agree. The DCR officials still seemed a bit hesitant to include more traffic calming features, but at least there's going to be a much nicer park for this stretch of the river!
