Order 4293. Oil)? Cummnttuwaltlj of M&BmtfyuwttB DIVISION OF METROPOLITAN PLANNING 20 Somerset St., Boston, November 30, 1934. To the Honorable Senate and House of Representatives in General Court' Assembled: The Division of Metropolitan Planning herewith respectfully submits its annual report for the year ending November 30, 1934. Special Reports In accordance with instructions from the General Court, this Division has been engaged this year in the investigation and preparation of reports on the following matters having to do with proposed rapid transit extensions or im- provements in the District. 1. Removal of the Washington Street Elevated Structure in Boston, Rox- bury and West Roxbury and substitution therefor of a subway in accordance with Chapter 36 of the Resolves of 1933. This resolve called for a joint report by the Metropolitan Planning Division and the Boston Transit Department. 2. Advisibility of extending the Cambridge Subway to Arlington and the rapid transit system from Lechmere Square in Cambridge to Arlington in accordance with Chapter 22 of the Resolves of 1934. 3. Advisability of extending the rapid transit system in the city of Boston from Forest Hills Station to Spring St. or the Dedham line in accordance with Chapter 40 of the Resolves of 1934. These reports must be filed early in December of 1934. In none of these re- ports is the Division making definite recommendations but we feel that a sin- cere effort must be made to provide for the future financing of desirable and needed rapid transit extensions or improvements and therefore we are filing a bill providing for the setting up of a fund which will accumulate for this purpose and make such improvements possible without the burden of long- term bond issues.

  • Open Space Plan 2009-2016
    CityCity of ofSomerville Somerville ZONING OVERHAUL www.somervillezoning.com December 04, 2018 We were asked to do two things for today: 1. Present the roadmap to 125 acres 2. Review the zoning petition Mayor Joseph A Curtatone Office of Strategic Planning & Community Development Executive Summary • The City is launching a SomerVision update: • We are committed to putting a stronger focus on planning for public space. • We need additional indicators of success for future planning; The adequacy and validity of using acreage alone for our specific situation and objectives is questionable. • About 20 acres of public space has been created since 2010. Another 11.75 acres is in planning stages right now. 88.25 acres is still needed. • Sites for the remaining 88.25 acres will be hard to find and will cost an estimated $550+ million dollars to acquire, design, and construct. • This cost is too much for the City of Somerville or for development to bear alone. How much each party should provide remains unanswered. • The City is forming a task force to answer these questions by weighing costs/benefits in relation to other objectives. • Interim zoning was prepared, but long term zoning solutions are needed. Mayor Joseph A Curtatone Office of Strategic Planning & Community Development Agenda • Planning for public space • The roadmap to 125 acres • Financing the 125 acre goal • Zoning petition review and next steps Mayor Joseph A Curtatone Office of Strategic Planning & Community Development Planning for Public Space Mayor Joseph A Curtatone Office of Strategic Planning & Community Development Mayor Joseph A Curtatone Office of Strategic Planning & Community Development We all agree… There is NOT enough public space in Somerville.

It is with that same enthusiasm that we release an updated edition of the Community Partners Directory in a user-friendly format. This new edition features a list of all ORI programs with a brief description of each, followed by a list of the providers that offer each program. After, the directory lists each provider more thoroughly, including their contact information and location.

  • Weight and Height Restrictions That Impact Truck Travel
    ON REG ST IO O N B BOSTON REGION METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION M Stephanie Pollack, MassDOT Secretary and CEO and MPO Chair E N T R O I Karl H. Quackenbush, Executive Director, MPO Staff O T P A O IZ LMPOI N TA A N G P OR LANNING TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM DATE: December 21, 2017 TO: Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization FROM: William S. Kuttner RE: Weight and Height Restrictions that Impact Truck Travel 1 INTRODUCTION This memorandum presents information about bridges in the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) area that have signs restricting the weight or height of vehicles permitted to pass over or under them. MassDOT personnel monitor these weight and height restrictions, along with a bridge’s physical condition, or rating, and summarize them as inspection reports in MassDOT’s internal database. However, the physical condition or rating of bridges is not the direct concern of this study. The concern of this study is that truck restrictions cause trucks that are otherwise fully compliant with Massachusetts and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) size guidelines to use more circuitous routes than necessary to reach their various commercial destinations. Forced circuitous truck travel increases expenses for freight carriers and customers, increases the total environmental impact for a given level of freight traffic, and increases the negative impacts on local residents and communities. This study characterizes the severity of height and weight restrictions on trucks in the MPO region. The information developed will be used to evaluate projects considered for inclusion in two MPO planning documents: the Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).
