Given their location at a blind corner, these legacy train tracks and the associated roadbed decay around them are a serious and ongoing safety issue for both cars and bikes. Now that the City of Cambridge owns the entire rail corridor, we should remove these tracks and repair the area properly in anticipation of the corridor's future planned conversion to a multi-use path.

Thank you for reporting this issue to the City of Cambridge. Unfortunately, the City is not responsible for addressing issues on MBTA property, but we've shared this report with the MBTA and asked them to address.

Please contact MBTA Customer Support at 617-222-3200 or visit http://www.mbta.com/customer_support/feedback/ if you'd like to submit this request directly to the MBTA online.

Please do your homework. Those tracks are owned by the City of Cambridge. They purchased them last year from the railroad for $860,000. So it’s City-owned tracks crossing a city-owned street. Please repair.
