Case Noted. Thank you for submitting your request to the Boston Transportation Department. The bike lane is on the left through this corridor in order to avoid right turn conflicts due to the one-way streets and parking garages. People on bikes should use the bike box at the signal to switch sides when there is a red light.

So the official engineering design of this intersection requires bikes traveling on Dartmouth to wait at a green light, wait for traffic to stop, then move into (hopefully) vacant bike box? This still doesn't address the conflict between drivers in the second lane from the right cutting across the bike lane into the right turn lane. I bike this route a lot since it leads to the Beacon St. bike lane. And thank you for restriping Darthmouth further north. But this section does not seem to be an example of Vision Zero aligned infrastructure.
