Less than a week after they were installed, many of the flex posts on the BU bridge have been destroyed by vehicles. Appreciate the thought but cyclists clearly need more protection at these intersections.

This crash is frightening and absolutely unacceptable—5 pedestrians were hit by the driver of this box truck. Keeping those injured in our hearts, and wishing everyone a speedy recovery 💛 So far we know very little about how this happened. No one should fear being hit while on the sidewalk.
