More Bike Lanes Coming To Bridgewater

Cyclists are about to get more space on Bridgewater roads. The town's planning department is expecting to start work as early as this week on new shared bike lanes. The lanes will be installed on a portion of North Park Street, York Street and Alexandra Avenue. Director of Planning, Eric Shaw, says the bike lanes provide people with another option to travel.


Shaw says the town will also be putting up signage to help educate motorists on how the lanes work. He says they don't anticipate many traffic holdups, with the work occurring in the early morning hours.
