Written by Boston Biker on Nov 18

Just received the following notice from the Town. This is to fix some of the bumps in the path.

“Bike Path Closures Nov 20 through Nov 22
Weather permitting sections of the Minuteman Bike Path will be closed between 7:00a.m. – 4:00p.m. on November 20th through the 22nd for paving repairs. The general locations for repairs are from Linwood St. to Lake St., and Lake St. to Thorndike Field. Please observe “do not enter” signs and seek alternative routes around these work areas during these times.
All modes of travel (pedestrian, bicycles) will not be allowed in work areas.”

Hurrah!

The bumps are annoying, please and thank you for removing them Arlington.

Love cyclists.
