    The bike lane on the inbound approach to the Longfellow bridge is in terrible condition. It's bad enough that a lot of cyclists swerve into travel lane to avoid bumps.

    It is probably better not to have three lane at this point as it creates a false impression for people driving that cyclists will stay to the side.

    Please add some bike lollipops on Howard St. There is no secure storage for bikes. People have limited options and secure bikes to signs etc.

    I know parts of the sidewalk are narrow and you need to comply with ADA. However judicious placement of bike parking could actually improve ADA issues by reducing bikes parked on signs and fences. Also consider whether small curb extensions at corners could provide space.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Transitions across side streets are failing. Pavement has settled, raising granite curbs across bike lane. Impossible to ride comfortably. Paving was laid too deep and has been crudely milled to meet granite curbs creating a jarring speed bump on downstream edge of cross street

    I've had several scary near misses while riding the western ave bike lane. Drivers turning right off western are not realizing they are turning across a bike lane. Can we do something to slow these turns? Like steepening the approach to the table top on the western ave side and a minor kerb extension. There is a similar issue with drivers crossing western northbound in heavy traffic being given a gap and accelerating across the bike lane without looking. Thanks!

    The phasing of walk signals at this intersection is bad for pedestrians. Many people are being forced to wait a long time during daytime hours. Please update phasing to allow more frequent opportunities to cross. This will improve reduce delay for larger numbers of folk and reduce crossing against the signal which is rampant due to poor phasing.

    Flagrant double parking by all kinds of vehicles in morning peak all along Charles. Creating all kinds of risky lane changes by cars and bikes. This is a recurring issue.

    No right turn sign has been removed (maybe by sealing crew?). This creates a dangerous situation for cyclists going straight through intersection, buses are now turning right on red risky and scary for cyclists stopped at light. Cyclists are running the red to avoid this. Please replace sign.

    People are piling their bags of dogsh*t at the Montague entrance to Hoyt field. It's unbelievable that people do this but if there was a trashcan here they would hopefully use this.

    Please add some more bike racks in front of the post office. Thanks!
  • 1 Broadway Cambridge, Massachusetts - Mit
    The pavement where the bike lane passes the pedestrian crossing is potholed and patched. It's tough to ride over and riders are forced into traffic. It also distracts riders from pedestrians who often cross on red during busy times. Can we resurface here please?
