    DCR Allston-Brighton Riverfront Parks and Parkways

    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...

    DCR Allston-Brighton Riverfront Parks and Parkways

    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

    Biking in Boston

    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?

    DCR Allston-Brighton Riverfront Parks and Parkways

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

    Biking in Boston

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

    Roads and Highways General Development Thread

    One thing properly designed speed humps are great at is stopping the SUPER fast speeders on a street. Like if there's one dude who does 80 mph on a residential street, a speed hump will absolutely stop him. For folks going closer to the speed limit, it might not be as big of an impact. They're...

    Police Details, Cameras, & Enforcement Methods

    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.

    Crazy Transit Pitches

    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...

    DCR Allston-Brighton Riverfront Parks and Parkways

    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!
