Makayla, a dark-skinned Black woman with long dredlocks, smiles while standing in a bus stop on Mass Ave. A bus-only lane is clearly visible on the street to her right, running alongside a separated bike lane.

Where We're Going + How You Can Help Us Get There:

People stand at a bus stop looking at a #50 bus as it approaches. A person rides a bike in the temporary bus-bike lane that has been created with orange cones, while cars travel in the vehicle lane beside it.

Advancing bus-priority. It started with a big win on Washington Street in Roslindale. Help us build on this momentum to reduce travel times for bus riders on other congested corridors throughout Metro Boston! #BetterBuses

Eliminating traffic deaths. Boston, Cambridge and Somerville have all made a commitment to Vision Zero. Together with the MA Vision Zero Coalition we are holding city leaders accountable for their goals. Support our annual reporting and help us step up at the State House to make streets safer all! #VisionZero
