The City of Boston is planning changes to the parking on Walnut Ave between Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and Humboldt Ave to improve safety for students at the Higginson Lewis School. We will be moving parking from the south side of the street to the north side of the street, so that students do not have to cross the street to reach their caregiver’s vehicle during school arrival and dismissal. In addition, we will be installing two speed humps, per the image above.  

Please join us in a meeting to discuss the upcoming changes and to provide input on the parking regulations. The Meeting will be held at the Higginson-Lewis School (131 Walnut Ave. Boston, MA 02119) on August 19, from 6:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
