We are working on a number of bike projects this year as part of our work to quickly close gaps across the City in Boston's emerging network of low-stress bike routes. These changes will increase the legibility of the bike network in Jamaica Plain. This year's JP projects include Green Street and Seaverns Avenue/Gordon Street, Eliot Street, McBride Street, and Boylston Street.

Have questions or comments? Come meet us in-person at the Jamaica Plain Branch of the Boston Public Library on the following dates:

• Thursday, June 29, 4 - 7 p.m.
• Thursday, August 17, 4 - 7 p.m.
