This bike lane is a colossal
Mistake. Please remove
It for the good of our city.

Ticket and tow.

The bike lanes are wonderful. We just need cars to respect them.

Not all bike lanes are wonderful. The ones that were able to keep parking and not cause traffic jams should be the model for the rest of them. Garden Street did not need separated bike lanes. We need bike lanes that respect the fact that bikers are only 1 to 5% of transportation users and build according to use.

I agree with Anonymous’ comment

The City imo believes that redirected car just disappear into never never land, rather than parking and travel into smaller neighborhood streets.

Agreed, they seem to think that adding metered parking to residential streets won't affect others! Are you kidding?

They know, but……

y'all are so corny get a hobby

I live in the immediate area there is more than enough parking even after the lanes went it. People might have to walk a block (or heaven forbid use their giant empty driveway!)

No traffic jams either.

Garden street is a model to follow

Cars vanishing into thin air according to some.

Thank you for reporting your concern to City of Cambridge via Commonwealth Connect. We have reviewed the information you provided our staff and will be investigating this issue further.

Anon-400000 Are you kidding? Garden Street a model to follow?? No traffic jams either???? Look at attached. The traffic has spilled over into Raymond Street, which was once a quiet residential street. Like John McMahon said, cars don't vanish into thin air. They find another route. On N. Mass Ave, the 18-wheelers are detouring onto the residential streets to avoid the traffic jams on N. Mass Ave. One almost hit a child playing on the sidewalk.

Anon-400000 This is what Gold Star Road looks like now as a result of the traffic jams on N. Mass Ave. As you can see it is a very narrow residential street. These trucks used to stay on Mass Ave but now detour to avoid traffic.

Because there was no traffic on any of those side streets prior to dedicated bike lanes- great narrative to fit the foregone conclusion

"No traffic"! Too funny! Members of the Flat Earth Society are in our community

Chris Roof--No there was not huge traffic jams on Raymond Street before the bike lanes and as I said in my post, 18-wheelers went down Mass Ave, where they are supposed to go, before the bike lanes were implemented. What are you talking about?
