Description
This is a request for a pedestrian and bike specific overpass AND connector between the Minute Man trail and the Fresh Pond Reservoir. The bike option over the rail tracks is very bad - either dangerous or sharing a small sidewalk with pedestrians. This is 2019. We should have the infrastructure to accommodate everyone that wants to bike without obstruction, everyone who wants to walk without obstruction, and everyone who wants to drive without obstruction.

the second overpass circa Jefferson Houses on Rindge Avenue, connecting North Cambridge to the Fresh Pond Markets, to the playing fields of Danehy Park, and to Hagerty School. Children are now bused to Hagerty, but could walk if not on the Parkways. I believe the latter is a Cambridge Policy: the Parkways too dangerous for children to walk as other children do off the Parkways.

I think either high-speed underground personal transports or several city-supplied helicopter (or autonomous drones?) would be a better solution.
Can you look into those ideas?

Hi Arthur-
As I think you are aware, the Alewife bicycle/pedestrian bridge has been under consideration for some time. The bridge is noted and discussed in the Alewife Envision Plan which is under final review and hopefully will be released soon.
I am going to close this SCF order since this is used for maintenance requests and not appropriate for capital project ideas. Thanks.
