This is an excellent opportunity to tell Wynn Resorts that Somerville needs direct pedestrian (and bike) access across the Mystic River between the new Assembly Orange Line T station and the Everett shoreline. The Wynn property is only 1000 feet from the T station, but there's currently no way to get there from Everett.

Without this essential connection to public transit, the Wynn casino will add traffic and congestion to Wellington Circle and Sullivan Square.
