New Bike Lanes Everywhere!
Written by Boston Biker on Sep 16I have had a very good problem lately, it has been hard to keep up with all the new bike lanes going in! Seems like they are going to be putting them in on Comm. Ave, and North Harvard, and Columbus Ave. Huzzah! If you see new lanes popping up, shoot me an email.
The latest sightings seem to be new bike lanes on Beacon near BU, spotted by 100psi and pedalstrike.
I also saw what looked like new bike lanes being painted on River street coming over from Allston into Cambridge. At least I think they are new bike lanes there was no markers on them, and frankly I wouldn’t be sad if they were not bike lanes, cause the shoulder on River is really rough, and I would hate to think they were gonna put a bike lane over that mess…sorry no picture yet of these, will keep you posted. We are still very far from a complete system of bike lanes and bike infrastructure, but every long journey starts with single step…I am pleased to see we have taken a couple small steps lately.

New Bike Lane On Columbus Ave.
Written by Boston Biker on Aug 26I have gotten some reports that a new half mile of bike lane was painted on Columbus ave in the back bay/south end area last night. From what I hear they are not stenciled yet (the bike symbol isn’t on them, just the lines, which from what I understand are done by different people), anyone got any pictures?
EDIT: Hurray BostonBiker.org Bloggers! Not only did you produce pictures of the new bike lane almost as soon as I had posted this, but I think you are all awesome as well!
