Primary Project Type

Streets

We are working with Boston University and nearby residents to create separated bike lanes between:

University Road/Carleton Street, and
Beacon Street/Massachusetts Avenue.

On a regular day, you'll find 1,000 people biking along Comm. Ave. near Silber Way. On a sunnier day, you're likely to see over 2,000 on bikes. But, Comm. Ave. is also one of the most crash-prone streets in the City for people on bikes.

Project Area

The project area includes Commonwealth Avenue from Charlesgate to University Road.
