No portion of the protected bike lane on Comm Ave, eastbound or westbound, between Packard’s Corner and the BU Bridge are passable. The protected bike lane in front of 770 Comm Ave westbound is also impassable, with giant piles of snow. There are some stretches which have been cleared but there are giant piles of snow at some point in the lane, preventing any passage. I spent half an hour documenting the conditions on video, which clearly show that a) none of these lanes are passable and b) there is a clear need for these lanes to be cleared, as people are either dangerously riding in the street or riding on crowded sidewalks as this is BU’s campus. I truly appreciate the work of the Public Work’s department. I understand that you have had a lot of work on your hands to clear snow around the city, around the clock. But please, consider prioritizing making these lanes passable. It has been over a week since the storm, and the lanes have looked the same since then. In just the couple of minutes I spent this morning documenting the condition of the lanes, I saw several dozen people either biking or scootering on the street or on the sidewalk. Furthermore, vertical separators on Comm Ave on the I-90 bridge deck have been destroyed over the bridge deck and need to be replaced. Cars are using the bike lane as a third turn lane without the separators. Evidently, we need these lanes to be cleared and flexposts to be replaced. Thank you all for your service, and I look forwards to the resolution of this issue. .

The four wheel drive on my bike broke this week and so did the ability to take off and fly so the city is going to have to be burdened with plowing this two lane bike lane more than just a single lane that ends in a huge snow pile

Can be plow A street bike lanes please?

Bike lane fail. Over a week after the storm, the city has utterly failed at snow removal. The Cyper St bike lane was plowed then the drivable lane just ends… the crosswalks and ramps are also unshoveled.
