Making it happen in Revere!

Making it happen in Revere!

In two months time, this section of Crescent Avenue in the Beachmont neighborhood of Revere saw real change. Thanks to the work of resident advocates, dedicated City staff, and WalkBoston’s timely walk audit funded by the Cummings Foundation, new sidewalk, curb ramps, and pavement markings now support people walking to the Beachmont T station, schools and local shops. You might notice in the photograph that more work needs to be done – one more crosswalk leading from the island to the distant sidewalk. Its in the works – just have to wait for a new curb ramp to be installed.

There’s more! Crosswalks, parking lanes, and no parking zones were painted on Crescent Avenue near its intersection with Winthrop Avenue.

WalkBoston loves seeing action after a walk audit. Thanks to all who helped make this section of Beachmont more walkable!
