The following proposal from the Broadway Neighbors Coalition was sent to various town bodies. Signing it were Vincent Baudoin, Jennifer Litowski, Catherine Farrell, Paul Schlichtman, Ratnakar Vellanki and members of the Broadway Neighbors Coalition.
Those involved cite recent positive steps pointing to “an exciting future for the Broadway corridor, but residents see a need — and opportunity — for near-term changes to improve safety and accessibility.”
One positive step is a $1.1 million grant from the Boston Metropolitan Planning Organization providing design funding to municipalities as part of a transportation-improvement program.
The Broadway Neighbors Coalition is a group focusing on the Broadway-Warren corridor in East Arlington. “We advocate for safe streets improvements — improved crosswalks, separated bike lanes, smarter parking ….”
