Cambridge City Manager Yi-An Huang is seeking volunteers to serve on a new Working Group to help guide the Mass Ave Partial Construction Project on Mass Ave, from Waterhouse Street to Alewife Brook Parkway.
As part of its 9th Participatory Budgeting (PB) Cycle, the City of Cambridge invites the community to vote on projects to improve the city from December 1-11, 2022. This process is open to all Cambridge residents age 12 and older (and all 6th graders) regardless of citizenship status, including university students.
Join the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in creating Destination 2050, the next Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) for the Boston region. The plan sets the vision, goals, and strategies that guide the MPO as it makes decisions about investments in transportation infrastructure and services. Your feedback will help us shape the transportation vision for the Boston region for the next 30 years. This survey will take less than 10 minutes to complete
