Cambridge Bicycle Plan Update
Cambridge, MA
Project Summary
Toole Design assisted the City of Cambridge, Massachusetts, with the 2020 Cambridge Bicycle Plan, a timely update to the 2015 Bicycle Plan. Along with conducting community outreach, we updated previous chapters with new data, programs, toolboxes, and policies. We also created new chapters that assess the feasibility of separated bicycle facilities on select corridors.
We worked closely with the City to thoroughly integrate equity into the plan and craft associated infrastructure and programmatic approaches. For infrastructure, we used Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy areas as a factor to prioritize quick-build facilities. On the program level, the plan highlights bikeshare memberships for low-income community members, bicycle workshops specifically for women, and in-school programs.
