Hubway changes for this year

[sparr0.livejournal.com]

Hubway is operational again and there are some changes in our vicinity:

Cambridge:
New station at the Radcliffe Quad, at Garden St/Shepard St
Planned station for the Porter Square T plaza

Somerville:
New station at Highland Ave/Somerville Hospital
New station at Teele Square/Elm St
New station adjacent to Tufts at Packard Ave/Powderhouse Blvd
Ball Square station moving down the block to Bristol Rd at the intersection of Broadway

EDIT: These are copied from an email sent from Hubway to members. I am aware that Elm St doesn't go to Teele Sq, and some of these new stations don't exist on the map on Hubway's website.

If you don't mind my asking, where's this information coming from? The stations on your lists are a little different from the info on the map at the Hubway site. (http://www.thehubway.com/stations) Thanks.

An email from Hubway to members this morning.

Cool, thanks! So excited to see one come to Porter Square!

I noticed the bikes were back this morning at Powder House circle, it's like a sign of Spring!! (as I ran a VERY chilly outdoor class)

I saw your class out there! Brisk!

[geekpixie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they were troopers, especially after the tease of yesterdays weather!!

There is no cold but the cold we make.

And yet again they have the informational sign facing the wrong way, so that you have to stand between the bikes to read it up close. :-P

Elm St doesn't go to Teele Square. ?

[sparr0.livejournal.com]

Maybe they meant Holland St?

They need stations at Magoun, Porter, and various points up Mass Ave, IMHO. Also I'm sure the residents of east somerville would like some love too.

You can suggest stops on their map! http://www.thehubway.com/stations

Personally, I will totally get a membership once they get out to Fresh Pond. It would be nice to be able to bike only one way to work if it's only going to rain part of the day or something.

It is odd that East Somerville is still not getting Hubway bikes.

I absolutely agree about having one in Magoun, especially, as the extension of the Community Path to Lowell Street will be completed this year!
