Boston Cyclists Union Launches Petition for Protected Bike Lanes on Arborway

Should safety be improved for cyclists on the roadway?

Representatives with the Boston Cyclists Union are looking for support in petitioning for protected bike lanes along the Arborway in Jamaica Plain. 

The BCU said in a statement it was denied access to the striping plan by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation in regards to a new bike lane on the roadway, and as such was not able to encourage safety improvements to the area.
