Official Text

That the Executive Director of the Office of Strategic Planning and Community Development (Transportation and Infrastructure) and/or the Director of Traffic and Parking review all street direction signage in the Ball Square neighborhood bounded by Cedar Street, Highland Avenue, College Avenue, and Broadway and add additional signage to make the direction of streets super clear, as out-of-town drivers will be cutting though that neighborhood with its highly unusual and unconventional traffic patterns once the Ball Square/Broadway Bridge closes, and are quite likely to go the wrong way down the many one-way streets if signage is not startlingly clear.
