Honoring the life of Louisa Gag |
We are all still heartbroken of the loss of Louisa Gag last week. The Massachusetts Vision Zero Coalition is holding a vigil honoring the life of Louisa Gag and calling for immediate, urgent action to create safer streets for all.
Hear from those who worked and partnered with Louisa about her profound impact as a transportation leader and cherished colleague. Then join us in demanding changes to help prevent further deaths from traffic violence.

TIME: Gather at 5:30 p.m.; speaking program starts at 6:00 p.m.
WHERE: City Hall Plaza, 1 City Hall Square, Boston, MA 02203
If possible, please wear yellow in support of Vision Zero.
BIKE CONVOYS: Groups across the region are planning bike convoys to the vigil.
We will meet at Star Market (33 Austin St. Newton) at 4:30pm Thursday July 16th. We’ll ride through Newton Corner, Brighton, Allston, past B.U. and the Boston Common to City Hall Plaza.
