Thank you to everyone who attended the fourth community meeting about the Garden Street Safety Improvement Project on September 20 and the community open house on September 22!


If you were unable to attend, we have posted the meeting materials to the project page:


Fourth Community Meeting (9/20)


Community Open House (9/22)


Important Dates

Thursday, November 3: The Historical Commission will review the part of this project that falls within the Old Cambridge Historical District. This review pertains to flex posts and curbing changes between Chauncy Street and Mason Street. Click here for more details.


Late October 2022: We plan to install most of this project by the end of 2022, beginning around the end of October. Installation will include signal changes, sign installations, new markings, bicycle stencils, flex posts, and colored surface treatments. Temporary parking restrictions will be in place during this work. Stay tuned for more details on the schedule. 



About the Project

Through this quick-build project, we will install separated bike lanes along Garden Street from Huron Avenue to Mason Street near Cambridge Common.


Based on the feedback we've received, we are moving forward with a layout that converts Garden Street to a one-way for vehicles eastbound (toward Cambridge Common) between Huron Avenue and Concord Avenue. People biking will still travel in both directions, with a one-way separated bike lane on each side of the street.
