Description

I was almost hit by a huge box truck that was obstructing the bike lane here. While trying to take the lane and bike around the truck the operator started driving, with no signal, and almost hit me.

I don't believe I did anything wrong here, I had taken the full travel lane, but clearly the lack of a protected bike lane on Webster Ave between the City Line and Cambridge St is not safe. Please consider removing the car storage and adding a fully protected bike lane to mirror what has happened in Somerville.

At a minimum, provide proper "Bikes May Use Full Lane" signage and sharrows, or better yet an advisory bike lane down the middle of the street.
