City of Cambridge announces 'Shared Street' pilot

The City of Cambridge announced plans to conduct a 'Shared Street' pilot that will allow residents to walk and bicycle in both directions on select roadways. The 'Shared Street' pilot is designed to address increased movement in the city while supporting physical distancing as the city executes its reopening strategy. The Shared Streets will remain open for residents of the street, emergency vehicles, and deliveries. Local Access Only, Shared Street, and advisory speed limit signs will be posted at key cross streets to discourage through traffic. People driving are expected to travel at low speeds and yield to people walking and cycling on the shared streets.
