Balancing the preservation of Brattle Street's historic character with the need for cyclist and pedestrian safety is essential. This report outlines a plan to implement a two-way separated bike lane using low-profile materials such as 6-inch-tall precast concrete curbing and reflective tape. These upgrades align with the city's broader goals of enhancing safety, encouraging alternative transportation modes, and reducing reliance on single-occupancy vehicles. The project will be completed in three phases and will include additional safety measures like bicycle signals and "No Turn on Red" signs at intersections.
