Watch over your plants, folks
16 Oct 2024
Our upcoming night will be the coldest of autumn so far. There are no frost/freeze hazards posted for Mass. because @NWSBoston isn't issuing. Surrounding offices, even with earlier frost dates, are. Creates confusion, in my opinion. Cover bring in non hardy plants tonight.

The @cvspharmacy automated phone line is the most atrociously ineffective I've ever experienced. Can't understand spoken responses, button prompts not responsive, and then it hangs up before it let's me leave a message. This is healthcare, this needs to be perfect.

🪙 For decades, our local & state officials have disinvested in public transportation while maintaining & expanding car infrastructure.
🚘 As a result, there is no place in the region where public transportation access is as high as car access.
ALT Transit riders have much less access than people who can afford to drive. The average Boston resident can reach the nearest hospital in 9 minutes by car or 55 minutes by transit. People can reach 15 times more jobs when driving compared to riding public transit.

For a story about biking in Boston, the Globe is looking to speak with people who have started biking in the city in the last year to find out what the experience has been like. trib.al/YVPkX4o

Reduction 2 is the best balance of realism (low cost, no no roads deleted) and ambition (more waterfront, less lanes), but two tracks should be a GL branch from Harvard to to Lechmere via West Station and the Grand Junction. Hope @MassDOT & @MassGovernor take this seriously

Time to hire some Station Grannies to keep the youth in check (and alive) at @MBTA stations. This morning at Green St station a teen jumped onto the tracks to get the football he and his friends were throwing. This happened 15 seconds before the train rolled in.

I don't usually take the bait, but I'm curious : Did A Street ever have more than one lane per direction? Looking at historic aerials, seems like no. If that's the case, adding bike lanes wouldn't have impacted how many cars A Street can process. What am I missing here?

Sitting on A St in Boston for 30 mins in backed up traffic. I hate coming into this city now & am glad I moved most of my business out. Narrowing of roads & addition of bike lanes that are rarely used have destroyed a once semi-enjoyable city to drive & conduct business in.

New sign in the wild at Centre / Seaverns @universalhub Compare to the old version
This week, we launched a pilot to redesign bus stop signs in an effort to improve their accessibility and visibility. This bus stop signage pilot comes in advance of anticipated bus service changes to come as part of the Bus Network Redesign Program.
