September 17, 2013, Update for Holloway Avenue Traffic Calming Project

Share this:

In the Fall of 2013, additional changes will be made to address concerns expressed by the residents at community meetings.  These changes include:

  • A buffer on each side of the street so cars would not travel right next to the sidewalk (either parking or a bike lane would provide the desired buffer)
  • Wider lanes at night (parking would be allowed on only one side of the street at all times)
  • Increased visibility at intersections (red zones have been installed at some corners to improve visibility)
  • Improved accommodations for people on bicycles, especially along the sloped portion of Holloway Avenue (an uphill, eastbound bike lane is proposed from Beverly Street to Vernon Street and a westbound bike lane is proposed from Ashton Avenue to Vernon Street).
