Roundabouts are a safer intersection design compared to a signalized intersection and should be used to Domenic Privitera Boston MA 02120 improve the safety of the Arborway. 10/22/20 10:18 AM 1. The paths should not be shared use. With E‐bikes, micro mobility, cargo bikes, accessible conveyances, and pedestrians wearing ear buds and not able to hear an approaching bicyclist, there will be crashes if Anne Lusk Brookline MA 02445‐6756 it is shared use due to speed differentials and widths of cargo/Fun2Go/child carrier bikes. 2. Bicyclists should not be on a path beside the traffic while the pedestrians have paths with wide green spaces by the homes, trees, and lawns. Riding beside the sound, mobile source air pollution, and dust from fast moving vehicles is not pleasant or healthy, Also, on a two way path, bicyclists riding with approaching vehicular traffic on their right would not be comfortable. At night, the intense and direct‐beam LED bike lights would be confusing to drivers who would see a beam of light approaching on their right. 3. The bicyclists should be shaded by trees, especially with hot summers, and for 24 hour riding, have continuous lighting directly over the two way bike path. The lighting should not be from the tall cobra head for the road because tree limbs obstruct the light from reaching the bike path, creating light and dark sections on the pathway.

    V E R S I O N 5 . 0 Message from the Executive Director Welcome to Boston and the John B. Hynes Veterans Memorial Convention Center. Thank you for choosing Boston and the Hynes for your upcoming event, which will be in one of the top convention centers in the world. That’s not an empty boast: the Hynes recently earned the International Association of Congress Centres' (AIPC) gold standard, the highest certification level a convention facility can achieve under AIPC's strict guidelines. In fact, both the Hynes and the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center in South Boston are now only the fourth and fifth in North America and the 14th and 15th in the world to achieve AIPC's gold standard. During your event, we hope you see what sets us apart and makes us among the best meeting and convention destinations in the world. AIPC's certification process examines 10 key areas of a convention center's operations, including customer service, quality of facilities and operations, employee relations, health, safety, security and emergency response, financial integrity, community relations, environmental responsibility, and industry and supplier relations. The Hynes, located in the heart of Boston’s dynamic Back Bay, offers visitors a high-tech, leading edge facility with a flexible floor plan that can accommodate events of all types and sizes. Conveniently located and in close proximity to Boston’s most popular hotels, historical sites, and tourist attractions, the Hynes boasts 360,000 square feet of handicap-accessible space, including 193,000 square feet of exhibit space, a 25,000-square-foot ballroom, and 35 meeting rooms.
