Hampshire Street Safety Improvement Project In-Person Open House

Description

On Tuesday, June 13, 2023 from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., we will hold a second open house to discuss the Hampshire Street Safety Improvement Project.

Stop by any time to see the revised design to add separated bike lanes to Hampshire Street and to speak to project staff. There will be no formal presentation and community members can drop in at any time. 

How To Attend

The Open House will take place at Cambridge DPW at 147 Hampshire Street. You are invited to drop by anytime from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. We plan to set up outside of the building, but an indoor option will be available in case of poor weather.

• This is one of two opportunities to hear updates on the project with city staff in June. We'll host a virtual community meeting on June 20, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Click here for more information.

About the Project

Through the Hampshire Street Safety Improvement Project, the City will add separated bike lanes to Hampshire Street, creating a more comfortable biking connection between Inman Square and the Port/Kendall Square. This "quick-build" project will change the layout of the street with new pavement markings, signs, and flex posts. We will also make improvements to existing crosswalks and changes to parking and loading.

The project area includes:

• Hampshire Street from Inman Square to Broadway
• One block of Broadway (from Hampshire Street to Portland Street)
