- Seeing an empty buffer and a full bike lane of snow is like a Looney Tuned gag where paramedics ignore the victim after rushing out with the stretcher.
- Could this bike lane on Oliver St in downtown Boston be cleared of snow? @bikeboston.bsky.social @walkmass.bsky.social @universalhub.com @boston.gov @mass.streetsblog.org
- Could this pedestrian crossing at Congress and Exchange Place be cleared of snow so it accessible and safe for all? @boston.gov @universalhub.com @walkmass.bsky.social @edflynnforboston.bsky.social @gigi4district1.bsky.social
- Yes. It could.
- People work hard to at least get us this far and I thank them. But in Boston the overall response for walking and biking has been poor. A week out, so many intersections impassible. I’ve seen one bike lane plowed on my routes. Very disappointing from this admin, who has flipped hard on biking. 🤷♂️
- Maybe with the next storm, #Boston can concentrate just a tad more on crosswalks in what is allegedly America's most walkable city www.universalhub.com/2026/maybe-n... #snow
