Livable streets is collecting data on which intersections need to be made better, see below for details.
—————
Do you walk out of your way to avoid unsafe intersections?
Do you poke at walk-signal buttons and wonder if they’re connected to anything?
The LivableStreets Safer Streets Campaign is deepening the city’s commitment to safety and advocating for better infrastructure – like cycle tracks and improved traffic signalization – to allow people to confidently explore the city on bike, foot and public transit.
Safety is particularly important at intersections, where people in cars, on foot, on bike, and in transit interact together.
That’s why LivableStreets is working to survey and recommend changes for specific crossings in the City of Boston. And, we need your help to identify intersections with pedestrian signals that need improvement.
We are surveying dozens of crossings and working with engineers in the City to implement fast fixes that improve signal timing, phasing and sequencing.
Together, we can make sure those everlasting Don’t Walk signals are a thing of the past. |
Best,
Mike
