Congratulations to Portico Brewing for earning a shiny silver designation as a formally-recognized Bike Friendly Business 🥈 Achieving this is no small feat and it shows that Portico really cares about the bike community, so let's show up for them and celebrate this Wednesday 🥳 See details below:

TOMORROW, 5/21, come to Aeronaut for this month's Streetwise! Slow streets and schools are natural partners - learn more from Jessica and Mark of Neighborways Design 🎓🚴

On Gibbens Street, we wanted to preserve this tree, but also make a safe and accessible sidewalk; so we choose to bump out the sidewalk at this location. 🌳

May the force of the bicycle be with you THIS SUNDAY as we celebrate Bike Month at Aeronaut Brewery, May 4th, from 1-4pm! SBAC will be tabling and we'd love it if you come say hi and learn about current and upcoming projects and events in Somerville 🥳 🚲 ❤️ 🍻

This Wednesday, 4/16 @ 6pm at Aeronaut Brewing: come hear @crschmidt.net talk about his efforts towards getting more butts on e-bikes, giving folks the chance to "try before you buy." See you there! 🚲💨

The Spring Hill Construction project has finally reached the ENDGAME. The last stretch of sidewalk replacements (project wide) on Lower Summer Street begins this week! voice.somervillema.gov/springhillse...

Construction season kicks off this week with our Washington Street contractors returning to the City to build two raised intersections at Hanson St/Skehan St and Oak Street/Houghton St. voice.somervillema.gov/western-wash...

Add another cool urban planning word to your dictionary: B is for Bioswale! Come out to Aeronaut Brewery this Wednesday the 19th at 6am to learn more about the many ways in which rain gardens enhance and protect street designs 🌱

Today's hard rain highlights the importance of rain gardens. Reminder to come to Aeronaut Wednesday for Streetwise to hear Brian Postlewaite wax poetic about rain gardens for climate resilience and safe streets. @finitealright.bsky.social @dogbiking.bsky.social @cityofsomerville.bsky.social

We will be tabling at this event and are looking forward to it all! The energy and empowerment that Critical Mass will bring post-ride, connecting with local advocacy groups and friends, and of course enjoying some food and drink. TOMORROW 6-8pm at Aeronaut:

Check out @cityofsomerville.bsky.social annual safe streets performance review! Lots of cool data, and lots of excellent progress. Kudos to @somervilleinfr1.bsky.social and the entire Mobility Team for a great year! mailchi.mp/somervillema...

New western Washington Street bike lanes to cleanse the timeline for 2025. @somervilleinfr1.bsky.social
