85 Main St Medford MA 02155, United States - MedfordNew bike lanes being completely ignored by USPS, local taxi and a ride share vehicle. Very dangerous situation for cyclists here as you then have to pull out into inpatient, fast-moving traffic on an uphill incline. We need to harden these lanes.

Repaint Bike Lane(s)Acknowledged139-143 Main St Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordPlease make this bike lane only bike lane and bus stop, and not pick up and dropoff for the medical building. It is one thing to be on a bike and wait a few seconds for the bus to pull in and out, and another thing entirely to be coming through on a bike where there are 6+ parked cars waiting for people to be done with their appointments. It completely defeats the point of the bike lane and makes it so that people, especially those of us biking with children, can't count on it being a reliable route. The medical building has driveways and parking, so please consider having pickups and dropoffs happen there, instead of where it will force people on bikes into danger.

Winthrop St Medford MA 02155, United States - MedfordBike lane and right turn lane on the northbound section of Winthrop street approaching the route 16 intersection are not painted correctly according to the pavement marking plans shared by the city

Repaint Bike Lane(s)Acknowledged51 Harvard Avenue Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordThere used to be a full bike lane on one side of the street. The street was dug up and repaved 6-12 months ago from National Grid work and the bike line was never repainted. Can we get this taken care of?

294 High St Medford MA 02155, Verenigde Staten - MedfordBike green markings are faded along this corridor
-
1-23 Dexter St Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordPlease add a contraflow bike lane on Dexter from Broadway to Main. The street should be wide enough to do it without removing any parking. I see many people biking the "wrong way" down this street already and explicitly delineating the space and signing for it would make it considerably safer to do so.

26-44 Webster St Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordWebster St. should be a good, low-speed connection for people walking or on bicycles to get to Medford Square or McNally Park from the other side of I93. Instead, it usually has cars parked on sidewalks on both sides of the street and drivers encouraged to speed by the double yellow lines in the middle of the road. Double yellow lines have been shown to increase vehicle speeds. This road doesn't have very high traffic volume, but often has individuals going at high speeds. Can we yet rid of the double yellow lines, stop allowing parking on sidewalks and on both sides of the street, and instead put in a two-way protected bike lane on the side that has the park, allow parking only on the side that is opposite the park (but not on the sidewalk), and have vehicles going in both directions share a single lane so that they have to go slow and pull to the side like what happens on streets like Tainter?

Repaint Bike Lane(s)Acknowledged56 Albion St Medford MA 02155, United States - MedfordPlease add a contra flow bike lane on Albion st. This would dramatically improve biking access to/from the Ball square T station.

129–173 E Albion St Medford MA 02155, United States - MedfordWork with Somerville to make E Albion a neighbor way style street. Replace the fence with a modal filter. It's a flat and a potentially good way to get around the hill without needing to bike on Mystic Ave. but the fence blocks it from being especially useful.

257 Playstead Rd Medford MA 02155, United States - MedfordCould a bike lane be painted on the right side of the painted "median" here, to join the lane on Winthrop?
