Quick-Build Improvements to Medford Street No Longer Planned for Implementation in Fall 2025
On September 18, the Mobility Division brought proposed parking regulation changes to the City’s Traffic Commission to create space to implement the new two-way protected bike lanes on Medford Street. The Traffic Commission did not approve the proposed changes. Therefore, the City cannot implement the quick-build changes to Medford Street this fall. As soon as we have more information on when these changes could be implemented, we will post an update on this project website.
We still plan to install new pre-cast concrete curb in the existing two-way bike facility on School Street between the Community Path and Medford Street. We anticipate this work occurring later this fall.
