Everyone in Boston deserves safe streets. We have a bold plan for transforming Boston's streets to better serve people walking, rolling, and riding bikes. Over the next three years, we will expand our bike network so that 50% of residents will be a 3-minute walk from a safe and connected bike route. Read more about our plan.

Have questions or comments? Schedule a 15-minute phone call or video chat to talk to the project team.
