What we are all about
The Somerville Pedestrian and Transit Advisory Committee was established by the Board of Aldermen ordinance on February 16, 2020. The committee works to improve conditions for pedestrians, to promote public transit and to improve equity and accessibility for all.
Activities include reviewing City plans for road construction, participating in public events, creating materials to encourage pedestrian and transit ridership in the city, and working with other mobility organizations at the local, state, and national level.
