Attention Cyclists: Lexington's Looking for Input On the Minuteman Bikeway

A review of the Minuteman Bikeway is underway and local cyclists are invited to weigh in with opinions about things like crossings, signage and trailside amenities by completing a two-page, online questionnaire. 

According to Peggy Enders, chairwoman of the Lexington Bicycle Advisory Committee, a Recreational Trails Program grant is underwriting a review of the Minuteman Bikeway on behalf of the towns of Lexington, Arlington and Bedford. Lexington is administering the grant on behalf of the three towns.  

Toole Design Group (TDG) was hired over the summer and has begun its review of current conditions on and near the 10-plus miles of the bikeway stretching through the three towns. As part of that review, TDG developed a two-page user questionnaire to gather opinions about trail signage, intersection crossings, and trailside amenities, Enders said.

The questionnaire includes an open section for comments, according to Enders, who encouraged other cyclists to fill out the questionnaire, adding their "experience, opinions and suggestions are very important to this effort."
