The resident's idea, as submitted
The idea
Road diet on Walworth St. Remove one lane of underused parking (that currently encourages speeding) and replace with a protected bike lane in the uphill direction.
Who it helps and why
Walworth is the flattest route between the Washington & Beech projects and Roslindale Square. Many who live in the housing project can not afford a car. If it was safe and comfortable to do so, more of them would bike.
