As with any good party for a 4 year-old, there will be delicious cake, and if you show up early enough, you might get to take home a limited-edition StreetsblogMASS zine that we&#8217;re printing for the occasion. RSVP via Eventbrite to let us know you&#8217;re coming.

A rendering of a wide street from a birds-eye perspective. The center of the street features a red dedicated busway, with two lanes (one in each direction) separated from adjacent traffic with landscaped medians and bus stop waiting area platforms. General motor vehicle traffic is confined to 1-2 lanes on either side of the busway. Along the sidewalks are green dedicated bike lanes, which are generally separated from the adjacent car lanes by gardens surrounded by curbs. A label in the upper left denotes the Mattapan Branch of the Boston Public Library, and another label denotes the intersecting street as Walk Hill St.
