The Newtonville Area Council conducted a public survey to gather community feedback on the roadway changes in West Newton and Newtonville. We have shared the findings with the Mayor and City Council to ensure local voices are represented as we engage with city officials regarding traffic and transportation safety in Newtonville.

See the report of the survey results is posted on our website, anonymized details of all the responses were shared with Jenn Martin to use in planning updates to the street based on the feedback from the public.  The survey highlights a diverse range of opinions regarding the pilot's goals, usage, and local impact. We look forward to seeing how these community perspectives line up alongside upcoming city traffic studies and data collection.
