The first item on Public Facilities agenda tonight (Wed 2/4, 7pm) is the first periodic update to City Council on the Washington Street Pilot. Agenda here:
https://www.newtonma.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/135670/639053760359189789

I will be moving over to this meeting after my Programs & Services meeting is over. (Note: also competing for attention at the same time, Public Safety & Transportation Committee will be interviewing Police Chief-designate Timothy Cohoon.)

Links to Fall 2024 Baseline data and Fall 2025 Post Installation Data are near the end of the Washington Street project page here:

If one wants to just see the conclusion of the Fall 2025 study (https://www.newtonma.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/135647/639052999107970000), jump to page 28:

"The Fall 2025 evaluation demonstrates that the Washington Street pilot is on track to meet its objectives for safety and multimodal use."

"Overall, the findings support continued monitoring and incremental refinements to maintain and enhance the pilot’s effectiveness."
