Emergency Beacon St Repaving
According to the Beacon St project website, the city will be doing some interim repairs to Beacon Street over the next few weeks.
Due to the current unsafe conditions created by the deteriorated road surface, we strongly encourage all cyclists to seek alternate east and westbound routes until the roadway surface is improved in mid-October. These interim measures prior to full-depth roadway construction will help to smooth the roadway and improve safety.
We ask cyclists to please make the safe choice and refrain from using Beacon St. until conditions allow. Additional signage and messaging will be provided at various locations to help direct cyclists to the appropriate detour routes.
Also:
Here's an article stating that construction would begin in early 2014. Whoops. The contract for the full reconstruction is expected to be awarded in November 2015 now, with real work not beginning until spring 2016 and completion in 2018(!!!)
