Help design the new Green Line stations

You can have a voice in how well the new Green Line stations work! The Green Line Community Corridor Planning Project of Somerville is holding a three-part station design workshop starting on May 21. Teams of professional planners, designers, and local residents will discuss each of the new Green Line stations, including the one we want at Route 16. Be part of the discussion.

Do you want the station near you to fit into your neighborhood? Do you want it to be safe and attractive? Do you want it to be easy to use? Here's a chance to lend your expertise as someone who lives here.

For an overview, see Groundwork Somerville's site. You can also visit STEP's site for more details about the May 21 orientation, the May 22 intensive workshops on each individual station, and the June 2 final presentations. These Community Corridor Planning workshops will involve conversation and progress towards useful station designs.
