davis_squareI'm really kind of baffled by the new HWY XING sign where the Somerville Community Path crosses a dead-end road near Alewife:
Is this the result of some misguided legislation or city ordinance?

But if they were wearing headphones and keeping enough to the right that there was space to pass, or wearing them at a reasonable volume which allowed for some awareness of the world outside, or wearing them but being sure to look around occasionally (and especially whenever changing direction), that wouldn't be a problem, right?
