SHOW UP! Make sure these people know that we care about these issues and that we want more and better bicycle infrastructure!
Here are three mayoral candidates views on biking from BCU:
Boston’s 12 mayoral candidates are in an all out sprint to determine which two hopefuls will stride past the primary election. Two weeks ago, 10 members of the bike community put 10 questions to them-and so far, three campaigns have answered. Does their timely response indicate the amount of priority they will give bicycles in their administration? You be the judge.
First to respond: Bill Walczak, Dorchester
Second to respond: John R. Connolly, West Roxbury
Third to respond: Felix G. Arroyo, Jamaica Plain
