New Bike Infrastructure All Over Town
Written by Boston Biker on Oct 17
New sharrows all over china town and in front of Emerson near the common. As well as new signs telling bikers how far away various things are.
Anyone notice anything else?
I have been seeing an astronomical number of new riders out there, all I can say, is more and better infrastructure! Build baby build, lets cover this town in bike lanes, and sharrows, and cycle tracks, and signs, and in general redesign the entire place to be pedestrian and cyclist and public transportation friendly.

Its Thermoplastic Season: New Sharrows On Columbus, Lines Going Down In Seaport
Written by Boston Biker on Apr 30
I saw some new sharrows on columbus on the way heading downtown today, and the seaport area looks like its getting new sharrows and bike lanes. I have also heard that Hubway is going to have some stations in the “innovation” district. Anyone else spot any new thermoplastic, or the markings indicating that more is on its way?

Museum Road Sharrows
Written by Boston Biker on Nov 19Got a report today that Museum road got sharrows, anyone got pics? Can anyone confirm about Ruggles? Thanks again Fenway for another great tip.
Museum Road finally got its sharrows painted today.
I assume Ruggles Street must have have gotten its markings today as well, given the proximity of the project, but haven’t confirmed that yet.

New Bike Lanes On Ruggles
Written by Boston Biker on Oct 13Got the following report.
Ruggles Street was recently repaved and, at least, as of this afternoon has lanes from Ruggles Station to Columbus Avenue. From Ruggles Station to Huntington Avenue there are spray painted sharrows and crosswalks awaiting the next round of thermoplastic.
Anyone have pictures of this yet?
Thanks Fenway for the tip.
You can also see some new sharrows on South Huntington over at The Hum’s blog.
