The City of Newton is requesting CPA funding to redesign a critical compromised segment of the Commonwealth Avenue Carriageway from Lyons Field to the Charles River Bridge, in the process creating new green space and adding a continuous walking and bicycle path by rerouting vehicular traffic to the south side of the median. The project will increase the overall amount of green space, link myriad trail networks including the Charles River Path, the Riverside Greenway trail network (in development), and Weston’s planned shared use path (currently at 25% design), increase visibility and access to the historic boathouse on the Charles River, and improve transit access in the area by upgrading bus stops. The agenda and meeting packet are now available.
