With rehabilitation of the historic Longfellow Bridge set to begin soon, MassDOT invites neighbors to attend one of two meetings in East Cambridge:
- Monday, July 1, 6pm — Cambridge Police Headquarters (125 6th St.)
- Wednesday, July 10, 7pm — MIT Building E 25, Room 111 (45 Carleton St.)
Representatives from both MassDOT and the bridge’s construction company will be in attendance to answer questions about traffic changes, pedestrian and cyclist access, Red Line service, and more. MassDOT will present their plans and then open up a question-and-answer session with the public. If you live or work nearby, or if you regularly use the Longfellow, I encourage you to attend.
