Steve and Terry-

I'm following up on this. Do either of you know the status of this project? Is there any new info regarding the street design?

>Aside from referring to the City's bicycle parking ordinance, I am curious about the Traffic graph under Mitigation: a chicane with cobblestone inserts? What does this design look like? Under no circumstances should the City be laying down "cobblestones"- rough granite pavers- across a street for crosswalk or as a rumblestrip. The City of Boston has been removing many of its cobblestone crosswalks along Atlantic Ave./Commercial St. along the waterfront/North End because of their deterioration/upheaval under constant motor vehicle pounding. They also are handicap- and bicycle- unfriendly because of their rough, uneven surface. Several examples of this can still be seen/experienced on MDCR parkways, such as Park Drive and The Fenway, and parts of Charles River Road in Watertown (behind the Arsenal).
