Pedestrian survey

The Boston Metropolitan Area Planning Committee (MAPC) is conducting a survey on conditions affecting pedestrians in the greater Boston area. The results will be used to determine which areas need improvements to make them more pedestrian-friendly, and what kinds of improvements might be needed.

You can fill out the survey online: http://www.mapc.org/pedplan/

There's a stoplight at Medford Street and Somerville Avenue, but northbound traffic on McGrath doesn't have a light there at all. This is what I'm referring to. When you look at the aerial photo, you see a crosswalk crossing the southbound on-ramp, but it's not painted across the northbound lanes (which are under the overpass and therefore not visible in the photo).

If you get off the 80 or 88 (not 87) there and walk to Target, you'll see what I mean.
