Hello Somerville Cyclists,
Winter has arrived, but we're still cranking along. We've got several bike-related events in Somerville next week.
Somerville Bicycle Committee Meeting in the basement of City Hall
Tuesday, January 19, 2016, 6:30-8:30 PM
Please join us for the monthly Somerville Bicycle Committee meeting. We meet at City Hall on Highland Ave in the basement employee lounge.
The coming meeting will focus on developing plans for new biking infrastructure to suggest to the city in the spring. We're looking at possibilities for Park Street, Summer Street, Beacon Street (as it gets ripped up again), the Broadland Path by the Powderhouse School, and various possible locations for Somerville's first advisory bike lane.
