>Hello,

>This is an open invitation to members of the Somerville and Cambridge bike 
>committees as well as MassBike Metro Boston to an internal working meeting 
>regarding the continuation of the Community Path past North Point.  The 
>purpose of the meeting is for Cambridge and Somerville bike folks to get 
>together to review some of the issues and options regarding the path north 
>of North Point, where it would parallel the proposed Green Line extension, 
>and make sure we all have a good understanding of these issues so that we 
>can most effectively advocate for whatever needs to be done to continue 
>the path.  There are a number of physical constraints including limited 
>right-of-way and at least one grade-separated crossing requirement in this 
>area, which should not be insurmountable but nevertheless should pose 
>challenges.  While options are being studied as part of the consultant 
>work for the state on the Green Line extension, we want to make sure we 
>are prepared to respond to whatever recommendations may emerge. 
>
>The meeting will be held Monday, Feb. 12th at 5:30 pm at 344 Broadway 
>(City Hall Annex) in Cambridge, 3rd floor.  Steve Winslow, Cara Seiderman, 
>John Burckhardt, Alan Moore, and I are confirmed participants.  If you are 
>interested in this issue and would like to attend as well, please drop me 
>a line.
