Traffic issues and intersection plans for Mass Ave in East <br />Lexington were discussed. Bedford Street between the Battle Green and the area <br />beyond the Bikeway will be torn up for work on the water main beginning some <br />time in May, opening up the possibility for improving bicycle accommodation along <br />Bedford Street once it is repaved. Sections of the Bikeway will be repaved next <br />summer. Traffic safety was also discussed at the meeting, including the <br />information form that residents can fill out to register a concern or complaint. <br />Laurel said that there is no acknowledgement loop when such a form is filled out, <br />which is likely frustrating for citizens. <br />Mass Ave Corridor Workshop: The committee may ask Dave Cannon to talk <br />about options for the East Lexington traffic improvement program at the future <br />meeting. <br />Bike -Walk -Bus Week in Lexington: Peggy confirmed that Lexington will host a <br />Bike /Walk/Bus week from May 5 to May 11.
