MAYOR WALSH ANNOUNCES SOUTH BOSTON COMMUNITY MEETINGS REGARDING EMERGENCY TRANSPORTATION RECONFIGURATION
City will engage community to discuss if one way streets will become permanent
BOSTON - Wednesday, April 1, 2015 - Mayor Martin J. Walsh today announced that the City of Boston will host two community meetings to discuss the future of the South Boston Emergency Transportation Reconfiguration (ETR) with residents.
April 28, 2015, 6:30 p.m.
Condon Elementary School
200 D Street
May 6, 2015, 6:30 p.m.
Tynan Elementary School
650 E 4th Street
The ETR which took effect February 14 is extended through June 1, 2015. The ETR has configured several streets in South Boston to one-way only in an effort to improve public safety following the historic amount of snow Boston received over a 30 day period.
"We've received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from South Boston residents about how the emergency reconfiguration has relieved traffic congestion and increased public safety," said Mayor Walsh. "I look forward to engaging in a robust discussion with the community on the future of these neighborhood streets."
In addition to attending the two community meetings, South Boston residents are encouraged to reach out to the Mayor's office with feedback about the reconfiguration by calling the Mayor's hotline at 617-635-4500, or by leaving feedback for the Mayor's South Boston liaison Eric Prentis at 617-635-2680,eric.prentis@boston.gov.
Street sweeping schedules for impacted streets will remain the same. The schedule for each neighborhood is available here.
