Dear Billy T and Somerville/Medford News Weekly Speakup Line,
I am wondering if you can get me a piece of information? When the city were doing the bike lanes, they eliminated over 100 parking spaces. I am wondering how many were designated for the disabled and if they were replaced and relocated to another location.
The elimination of parking has really cut out community participation especially for elders with mobility issues. Isolation is more detrimental to the elderly than food and exercise issues. Nobody addresses the issues of the elderly. I guess they don’t think it will happen to them?
Sincerely,
A resident who wants the elderly to matter matter in Somerville
