Boston Globe Talks Bikepaths


The Globe had an article this morning on an $82 million bikepath program for Massachusetts. The article included a graphic which I'll reproduce here (it is from the Globe) on present and planned projects. You'll see Andover has none. North Andover has a project that has been in the planning stage for several years and Lawrence has a riverwalk project.

A Peddling Wish

Thanks for coming to this blog. Here's what I'd like to accomplish. The long term goal is to be part of creating a safe, comprehensive bicycle plan for Andover. I'd like to think that at some point (I'll call it the 25-year bike plan), the town will have a series of linked paths and safe roadways which the residents can use for recreation, shopping, business and commuting. Students will learn the rules of safe biking early on, drivers will share the roads willingly and our town will be viewed as a model for other community biking efforts. Care to join in for the ride?
