Subject: Sign the petition! Mayor Simmons, Councilor Nolan, Councilor Pickett, Councilor Toner, Councilor Wilson: Stop the delay of separated bike lanes on Cambridge St and Broadway to 2027

Body:

Friend,

I signed a petition on Action Network telling Mayor Simmons, Councilor Nolan, Councilor Pickett, Councilor Toner, Councilor Wilson to Stop the delay of separated bike lanes on Cambridge St and Broadway to 2027.

On April 29 the Cambridge City Council voted 5 to 4 to start a process that would result in delaying separated bike lanes on Cambridge St and Broadway to as late 2027, instead of 2025 as currently planned. These projects not only reduce crashes for people on bikes by 50%, they also include safety improvements for pedestrians, particularly important as Broadway and Cambridge St are used by many school children.
 On Cambridge St alone, since 2021 there have been at least 65 crashes of pedestrians and people on bikes (+ other forms of active transportation), which led to at least 43 people being injured. Of those injured, at least 27 left in an ambulance. And that's just Cambridge St! Every additional year's delay to safety improvements means more injuries, and the risk of people dying. Please sign our petition to help prevent this; we'll also keep you updated on our progress, and how else you can help.
