The idea
Extend the Southwest Corridor to Roslindale Village. The SW Corridor is highly successful and provides a safe way for residents to commute to and from downtown. By continuing the corridor, this could provide safe passage to residents in Roslindale.
Who it helps and why
City residents south of Forest Hills have to utilize Washington Street to ride bicycles and e-bikes to the SW Corridor. Washington Street is not safe - the lanes are shared with busses and the street is uneven due to poor patch jobs. A separate bike/pedestrian corridor could reach even more city residents.
