MassDOT scheduled a public meeting for the #ReidOverpass replacement. At the last meeting in Jan, all the options proposed were horrifically overbuilt in the name of traffic flow. Let's hope they have something reasonable this time.

Now that I've slept on it and looked back at the slides, I see the problem. MassDOT considered fewer lanes (1st pic, items 7, 12) but they list an unbreakable constraint "Equal or better intersection Level of Service" (2nd pic).

The overpass is overbuilt today. If you require it to fit as many cars, of course you'll get a highway off ramp again!

Multiple cars crashed on Memorial Drive in #CambridgeMA, in the same spot where John Corcoran was killed two months ago. Cambridge is currently doing construction there to try to make the area safer. Today's crash was serious, involving a rollover and multiple injuries.

Here are the slides from today's public meeting about #MemorialDrive, with a list of short-term improvements they're planning to make to the dangerous rotary. They were also collecting input on what people would want out of a long-term solution.
