I was actually going to suggest to them that they remove Morrissey Blvd offramp. It only serves to make Morrissey an arterial route and future projects are trying to de-emphasize that connection to South Boston. People that get off there should stay on I-93 until either the Columbia Rd or...

Does anyone know why there are 3-4 construction vehicles owned by GTA Landscaping in the Bayside lot for the last 3 years? They haven't moved. One has a broken window.

The City of Boston is putting out an RFP for 2.4 miles of Columbia Road between Franklin Park and Moakley Park. More info: City seeks consultant, design services for rehabilitation of Columbia Road corridor | Dorchester Reporter (dotnews.com) This stretch was planned to be the "Dorchesterway"...

This is actually a pretty big project. Basically they're undoing the exterior renovation from the 1950s and restoring the church to its original look: CHC-Application-drawings-First-Parish-Church-9-8-2020-1.pdf (firstparishcambridge.org)

The inspiration for this or the copy of it? https://goo.gl/maps/6BRAQELjkuLoweDKA

Sounds like I need to start going to my neighborhood association meetings... Honestly parking is not a problem on Dot Ave. Food pickup is. A municipal lot is not going to change that. Most of Dot Ave in this stretch has no parking restrictions at all. Before having the city buy all these lots...

Nothing too elaborate, but Cambridge has a small bike lane project for Main Street and there is a design survey for it linked at the top. Appears mostly about parking, but also some signals. Main Street Safety Improvement Project (cambridgema.gov)

Since that MassDOT website is relatively useless in terms of finding out exactly what's happening and when, I found these two related documents: City-of-Revere-and-Town-of-Saugus-2020-Transportation-Construction-Project-Application.pdf (massgaming.com)...

But do you know of any other closings where media have cared to include a reason in the headline? Isn't it usually just "Wegman's to close Natick store" or similar? I mean, Wegman's didn't even include the non-traditional bit in their own headline. It's in the body.

Street view shows that it was formerly a JCPenney. Idk if it was mainly WCVB pushing this angle, but all of the "non-traditional Wegman's closing" headlines are very odd. Like, media are trying very hard to push the excuse and I'm not sure I've seen that before for a store closing.

I consider the interim payment scheme to be real waste of money here. They're trying to phase in the new system while keeping the old one active. They should just deactivate all fare collection for a couple months while the new system is installed. I imagine they don't want to "lose" operating...

They likely won't contact you. I'd suggest 617-635-4680 and ask to speak to one of the engineers. You can also call 311 directly and ask for the contact info for the staff member that closed out your case.

I'm sort of confused about this bus electrification plan. There was an article a few months back saying that most buses aren't used to their capacity (number of passengers) [Globe?]. Here's one from WGBH from 2017 either way citing most buses 49% full: High Costs And Empty Seats: Why Boston...

I guarantee the bizarre right turn lane that has the dashed bike lane line down the middle will be understood by approximately zero people. (Winthrop at Mystic Valley). Should just be a shared lane with shared lane markings and right turn arrows.

I'm not saying they aren't part of Greater Boston as a geographic area, just that the other section specifies "beyond 128" and already has all the threads on Natick, Weymouth, Wilmington, Peabody, etc. some of which are closer to Boston than Hull and Hingham. Perhaps those should be in Greater...

Sorry to bump this photo from last summer, but what the hell is going on with this house? Such a bizarre window situation.

I think this might belong in the "Beyond 128" section of the site not "Greater Boston'
