Investing in Parking and Transportation
Cambridge is the fifth most densely populated city in America and the second most densely populated city in Massachusetts. The number of cars, buses, bikes and trucks are equally matched by the number of pedestrians using sidewalks. This past term, I invested in infrastructure, ensuring that drivers, walkers and bikers can get to their destinations safely. I also introduced a bike-share program, which will begin this fall and give residents the ability to rent bikes from one of 14 solar-powered stations around the city.
