Description:

Please note that due to anticipated significant snowfall on Tuesday, March 14, both sessions of the North Station Area Mobility Action Plan (NSAMAP) charrette have been postponed to the previously arranged snow date of Tuesday, March 21. On the 21st, both sessions of the charrette, to which all are welcome, will take place at the same times and locations as previously publicized. These include:

The Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) and the Boston Transportation Department (BTD), in conjunction with other city departments will host a public design charrette on March 14, 2017 to receive focused public feedback on the proposed Bulfinch Triangle Transportation Improvements, which is an immediate action item recommended in the North Station Area Mobility Action Plan (NSAMAP). This charrette follows the public meeting held in January, at which the project team presented the full draft action plan for public comment. The charrette will focus on ideas for solving pedestrian, shuttle bus, and vehicular challenges within the Bulfinch Triangle. Two sessions of the charrette will be made available on March 14: 12 PM–2 PM, and 6 PM–8 PM. The same materials will be presented for consideration at both times; all are welcome at each session.

Anyone wishing to attend the charrette should note: the 12 PM–2 PM session will take place at The Causeway, 65 Causeway Street, 2nd Floor. The 6 PM–8 PM session will take place in the Community Room of the Amy Lowell House located at 65 Martha Road. In case of inclement weather on March 14, both the daytime and evening sessions will move to March 21, 2017 at the same times and locations.

The action plan, announced in November 2015, will develop both a range of near-term and longer-term implementable solutions for the improvement of transportation in areas adjacent to North Station, including the Bulfinch Triangle, the TD Bank Garden, Charles River Park, the Brook Courthouse, Nashua Street, and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH).

At this time, the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) is continuing to host public meetings in a virtual setting for the health, safety, and accessibility of Boston residents. For more information and updates, visit bostonplans.org.
