COVID-19 Update to the Community
As COVID-19 cases rise across the Commonwealth and in Cambridge, the City wants to update you on all of the strategies and mitigations that we have put into place to keep us all safe.
Supplier Diversity
The Supplier Diversity Program works to ensure that we are creating policies and programs that increase access to City contracts for historically underrepresented businesses in City contracting including minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, and other diverse businesses.
Keeping Cambridge Clean ($100,000)
Replace 10 trash barrels and recycling containers, making them rodent-proof and environmentally friendly. Big Belly trash cans will keep the streets clean, prevent pests from being drawn to waste bins, and make it easier to properly dispose of different kinds of waste.
Traffic Garden
A Dutch Traffic Garden, called “Safety School” in the U.S., is a permanent park for children to learn transportation etiquette by role playing. Kids take turns biking, walking, and driving a miniature streetscape in a safe environment.
