Learn about and discuss the upcoming changes to Garden Street at events today and Thursday!
About the Project
This fall, we're planning to install quick-build separated bicycle lanes and make improvements to existing crosswalks on Garden Street between Huron Avenue and Mason Street. The feedback we've heard so far identified a preferred plan: convert Garden Street to a one-way for vehicles between Huron Avenue and Concord Avenue. Vehicles will travel eastbound (toward Harvard Square), and there will be one-way separated bicycle lanes on each side of the street.
Next Community Meeting: Today (September 20)
Today from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., we will hold our fourth community meeting on Zoom.
During the meeting, we will:
- Present the preferred layout for Garden Street ("Option 3" from the last meeting), including a change to one-way vehicle traffic between Huron Avenue and Concord Avenue.
- Explain planned changes for each section of the project, including at intersections
- Discuss the implementation timeline
- Give you an opportunity to ask questions and provide additional feedback

Open House: September 22
In addition to the fourth community meeting, we will hold an open house on Thursday, September 22 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the plaza at the Garden Street/Concord Avenue intersection.
Information shared at this open house will include only what is discussed at the September 20 meeting: no new information will be shared. Instead, community members will be able to drop by in-person to talk to city staff and view plans.
