DID YOU KNOW?
Medford is getting new bike racks in our business districts this year!
And a bike rack option has now been added to SeeClickFix, so you can request a rack in locations where you need one or report a broken/damaged one.

Where do you need to park your bike?

Is the route you need to bike or walk blocked with snow?
Let the state and city agencies responsible know. They will come out and clear spots like this when asked, but don't tend to do it without prompting.
Many of the problem areas are not city property, but are the responsibility of Mass. DCR (Department of Conservation and Recreation) or MassDOT. In addition to reporting blockages on SeeClickFix to notify the City of Medford, you can email [email protected] with your specific requests.

The more we make it clear that we need and use these facilities all year 'round, the stronger the case for clearing these corridors as a matter of course. But in the meantime, it really does help if you report specific problem spots!

As we wait for the snow to melt, please be patient on the roads.

The roadways are narrower; alternative routes, bike paths, and bike lanes (where they exist) are mostly still unusable. You are also more likely to encounter people walking or rolling in the street, because sidewalks and curb cuts may not be adequately cleared yet either.

By state law, bicyclists are allowed to use the full lane anywhere except for restricted highways (these signs aren't a special designation, they're just a reminder). And motor vehicle operators are still required to pass vulnerable road users such as bicyclists, pedestrians, road workers, crossing guards, etc, by at least four feet.

So please drive patiently. Even if you don't want to slow down for someone else, you can console yourself that at least a person on a bicycle isn't going to park it in the parking space you shoveled out. :)
