Commonwheels leads a Magical Musical Mystery Bike Ride Saturday Oct 4.

The Community Path Safety Improvements project to implement both near-term quick-build improvements and longer-term design options along the path, at key intersections and at the two Green Line station entrances on the path. 🧵

Boston’s new “Better Buffers” initiative plans to replace flexposts with cast-in-place curbs. Somerville has started using pre-cast curbs recently. I assume pre-cast is cheaper/quicker to implement and just as protective as cast-in-place.
