🚧 When the Broadway separated bike lanes were in danger of not being installed, we mobilized Cambridge residents to show the Council why we need separated bike lanes—and the Council voted to continue their installation.

While the fight for safe streets continues, we’re proud of what CBS has accomplished this year.
A few highlights:
🗳️ We helped elect 7 of our endorsed candidates to Cambridge City Council!
🚲💡 We distributed bike lights at every Cambridge Public School back-to-school night.

Memorial Drive is part of our state parklands and was built to support access to the riverfront—not designed or intended to be a highway. Yet it remains a very dangerous road. On Monday, 11/17, 6-8 PM, we have a chance to share our feedback at an in-person hearing at the Cambridge Community Center.

The most important: share a specific story about why biking-and bike safety-matters to you or brings you joy. Attendees put the tips into practice via a group discussion, and Vice-Mayor Marc McGovern shared his valuable perspective on bike lanes and transportation policy in Cambridge.
