Enjoy the Season and Make it a Safe One for Everyone

As we celebrate the season, let's work together to keep the holidays safe

With the dry weather for the past 3+ weeks and the projections for the next 10 days continuing to show minimal to no rain, please help our Cambridge street trees thrive and give them a drink! Street trees require lots of water to establish themselves and thrive. Our trees need your help to get enough water.

Trees planted using funds from Participatory Budgeting

We need your help to help maintain a healthy, vibrant urban forest!

In order to increase the long-term survival of newly planted trees, Public Works has improved pre-planting soil preparation, supervision of the planting process, and post-planting watering and other aftercare.

Christmas Holiday closure information for the City of Cambridge

E-cargo bikes help City staff maintain our urban canopy. During droughts and heat waves, E-cargo bikes transport equipment across Cambridge to water trees. Purchasing three new E-cargo bikes would expand the City’s ‘water-by-bike’ program.

Most City of Cambridge offices, libraries, and senior centers will be closed on Friday, December 22 and Monday December 25 in observance of the Christmas holidays.
