Quick update on construction etc. in Dot

Neponset Avenue has been repaved for about half its length. Bike lanes have been installed going north but only sharrows going south. This road is way wider than 50 feet, so what’s with only one lane? (Must be a state planner?)

Franklin Park is blocked going from Pierpont Road to Glen Road due to pathway improvements which will actually make for a flat transition for riders in the future. While there is no easy access, regulars may plan an alternate route which isn’t as nice but is ok. Also this project is due to be completed fairly soon (before winter) so let’s go!

Broken (run over) bike racks in Peabody Square in front of Ashmont Cycles fixed within a week of ribbon cutting ceremony when dotrider asked the simple question, “How does leaving broken bike racks in front of a new bike store reflect on your actual support of his business…”

Dot Ave from Gallivan to Richmond is on a punch list. Great punch list! It’s a year old and aging daily.

Hubway announcements for JFK and UMass? Our bet is 2013…Anyone else?

And the beat goes on out in the hinterlands of Dorchester.

Peddle on!
