@cambridgemass.bsky.social Traffic Data Indicate Better Bike Lanes Led to Surge In Bike Traffic - mass.streetsblog.org/2026/03/10/c...
Strong Boston Globe editorial regarding Mayor Wu and transportation policy. She won re-election in a landslide and has the political capital to push forward with substantive changes that will make streets safer.
Today! We'll be here speaking on safer streets.
Here is Mass DOT Special Commission on Micromobility Report: 16 key actions covering safety & enforcement, infrastructure, and accessibility that will help to regulate traffic and create safer roadways for all forms of transportation.

Wow
#boston @wutrain.bsky.social build it and they will come. Protected lanes will even attract ppl who are scared of biking. Build them for our accessibility challenged folks...build them for our kids, for our environment, to save the average person money, and to increase city revenue to businesses

Great work!
With daytime operations winding down, our crews & contractors will be out tonight conducting large-scale snow removal across the city. Pics below from today’s efforts clearing crosswalks, curb ramps & widening roads.
Overnight snow removal: 1,094 truck loads (18,150 cubic yards) hauled away to snow farms. Thank you to our relentless Public Works & City Services teams 💪
Thank YOU @mayorwu.boston.gov! it's been impressive to watch the difference in the snow response by the city on this storm particularly around crosswalks & bus stops. And the communication you provide is so helpful ❤️
Would you be able to improve the @311.boston.gov responses as well? Tickets from
Eyes On the Street: Three Weeks After the Storm, Snow Woes Remain Across Greater Boston - mass.streetsblog.org/2026/02/20/e...
"We simply want bike lanes and bike paths that can be used when it stops snowing.
Nowhere in Boston will you find a street that becomes a dead end because of an enormous pile of snow, or intersections that become impassable because of the snow."

We need speed safety cameras NOW! Police say they're understaffed, and traffic enforcement seems to be a low priority for them.
"Everyone must be in high-viz all the time" is a great way to victim blame and shift the focus from dangerous drivers and poor infrastructure. Unfortunately it doesn't actually make anyone safer.
This is a fantastic analysis of a truly ridiculous proposal.
Yes, Massachusetts needs to legalize traffic enforcement cameras. The bills do an excellent job of addressing privacy concerns, the fees are low and go to the car not the driver, as it is license plate based
This law will save lives #AutomateSafeStreetsMass

Happy @wutrain.bsky.social congressional hearing smackdown day to all who celebrate. Per the Gregorian Calendar, celebrated each year on Ash Wednesday.
This is the second week in a row where I took matters into my own hands because Wu doesn't care about cyclists. I was only able to do a single block, so imagine what a mayor of a large city could do! @mass.streetsblog.org @universalhub.com @bikeboston.bsky.social
Come on man
Here's the 311. What is it, 2 weeks after the storm now???

This was Mass Av last night (westbound to the bridge) right at Columbus. See if you can find the bike lane! @wutrain.bsky.social @streets.boston.gov #BikingInBoston #ArriveAlive
Here's the @311.boston.gov boston2-production.spotmobile.net/public/BOS%3...
This article by @boston.com mentions this interview with @wutrain.bsky.social. I listened to it as well and she simply ignored the question. #BikesAreTransportation and we've been shut down for weeks while the city pretends we don't exist. We exist!

Could bike lanes on Moakley Bridge be cleared of snow? @universalhub.com @boston.gov @edflynnforboston.bsky.social @fortpointer.bsky.social @mayorwu.boston.gov @bos311.bsky.social @leetoma.bsky.social @bostonaruban.bsky.social @fpnaboston.bsky.social @bikeboston.bsky.social @walkmass.bsky.social
Your weekly reminder - motor vehicle operation where other humans are encountered automatically induces sociopathy on a massive, widespread scale. To combat this public health crisis, we must seek to make places where MV operation is the last-choice exception in each travel decision, not the norm.
