This is the first in the 8-part Free Webinar Series on Designing for Pedestrian Safety being given by the Federal Highway Administration and the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center.

This series is important because safe pedestrian and bicycle access is essential to the success of the new Assembly Square Orange Line T-Stop and new Green Line stops.

For more information, see:

• Green Line Extension to Somerville Project
• Assembly Square Orange Line T-Stop Project
• Assembly Square Mixed-Use Development Project

WITI?

The Executive Office of Transportation (EOT) has posted the Final EIR on the Green Line Extension into Somerville and Medford. All citizens of Somerville and Medford should evaluate this document and give feedback, because this is one of the final steps before the project begins implementation. Citizens should particularly look at the proposed mitigation of effects of this development on the surrounding neighborhoods.

Written comments will be accepted until July 23 at holly.s.johnson@state.ma.us.

For background and issues, see Green Line Extension to Somerville Project.
