Cambridge, MA: Pedestrian Plan

City of Cambridge


The analysis tools include census data and an examination of the pedestrian environment. The plan separates pedestrian design guidelines from roadway issues and vehicular movements, allowing for the safety issues to be addressed from different, independent viewpoints. For the pedestrian improvements specific to Cambridge, the plan classifies the city into nodes, spines, and other areas pedestrians are most likely use. It then presents needed actions to improve the space.
