Description

Parked vehicle obstructing the Cycle Track. Fortunately no other cars were parked legally, providing opportunity for cyclists to safely go around. Unfortunately, with nothing stopping other cars from parking legally, the Cycle Track becomes a trap when cars park like this.

Called CPD to report it immediately after taking the attached photo, the operator appeared to be unaware of what a Cycle Track is or why this form of obstructed infrastructure is so dangerous & frustrating. I strongly recommend educating CPD Dispatchers on what sorts of infrastructure exist in Cambridge.

Please forward this issue to DPW so they can deploy traffic cones immediately and flexposts when they are able to. Cones can be moved from other areas of Hampshire St that already have flexposts installed.
