River St & Western Ave bridge meeting - Feb 3

The MassDOT Highway Division is hosting a meeting about the reconstruction of the River Street and Western Avenue bridges.

We all know these bridges and the areas around them are overwhelmed with auto traffic and horrible for bicyclists and pedestrians. Hopefully the strong advocacy of our community and others can encourage the major re-design that is needed.

The meeting has been scheduled for February 3 at the Honan-Allston Library, 300 North Harvard Street from 6 PM to 8 PM. More info is at http://www.massdot.state.ma.us/highway/calendar/massdoteventdetail.aspx?id=138

    The DCR (the successor to the MDC) does own those bridges and intersections, but MassDOT is often involved in major reconstruction projects.

    Both ends of both bridges have pedestrian signals.
