Traffic/Pedestrian Signal Complaint Acknowledged02138 West Cambridge, Cambridge, MA, USA - West CambridgeTwo complaints. #1 cars are running red lights dangerously at corner Fresh Pond Parkway and Huron Ave. We have seen this between 7-8 am weekdays.
#2 cars are speeding very fast through the Larches neighborhood (Larchwood drive, fresh pond lane, meadow way) bewteen 7-9 am.
Traffic police could collect a lot of money if you just stationed yourselves at these two areas in the 7=9 am time period. Please, before we have a terrible pedestrian accident!!! -
Potholes and uneven pavement Archived13 Massachusetts Ave Boston, MA 02115 - Back BayThe bike lane and road next to the curb on the southbound side of Massachusetts Avenue here is full of potholes and uneven pavement. Its actually pretty dangerous to ride a bicycle over. The whole corner from the beginning of the #1 MBTA Bus stop to the edge of Beacon St needs to be repaved. This is of concern because many cyclists ride through this patch of road every day coming off of the Harvard Bridge.

No Access to Bike Path from Bridge ArchivedHarvard Brg Boston, MA - Back Bay
When heading south on the Mass Ave bridge on a bicycle, and using the bicycle lane, there is no way to get to the bike path along the river.
The solution here would be to build a ramp on this side of the bridge down to the river.
This would be safer for bikers, and prevent the temptation to ride on the opposite sidewalf (unsafe for pedestrians) in order to use that ramp.

Pothole AcknowledgedBoston University Bridge Boston, Massachusetts - Fenway-KenmoreThere is a HUGE pothole large enough to kill a cyclist. Please fix this! This is such a huge hazard, I'm surprised that it has not been taken care of yet. I called the DOT and I've emailed the DOT. All with no evidence of any concern.

Dangerous Blind Intersection ArchivedRaleigh Street Boston, MA - Fenway-KenmoreThe intersection of Raleigh Street & Bay State Road is very dangerous. There is no way for the drivers to see the incoming traffic from the stop sign. Moreover to make things worse, snow gets piled at this corner during the winter. A traffic engineering solution is needed before an accident happens
