Hello WalkMedford,
Tomorrow, the Medford Traffic Commission will discuss the plans for the Winthrop Street bicycle lanes.
Last year, CCSR documented that 75% of Medford High School students would cycle more to school if there were safe infrastructure. (see below slide from their presentation)
These lanes would provide that, and are expected to calm traffic so that drivers adhere more closely to the citywide 25 mph speed limit, by making the road feel more narrow.

If you can, please attend this meeting and speak up in support of safe bike lanes for our high school students, and all of Medford!
The meeting is Tuesday, April 11, at 5 pm. It can be found on the
city calendar,
