In the future, we hope to implement the solutions being experimented with in the Fenway area beyond this single neighborhood if it is a success. If not, our objective is to continue brainstorming and trying out new ways to improve traffic congestion in terms of accessibility, safety, reliability, and sustainability. Some possible solutions may include restructuring roads, providing incentives for utilizing public transport, and charging drivers who travel through congested areas and add to the congestion.
At this point in time, the most efficient solutions would be to promote public transport, advancing in machine-relying technology, and imposing fees on drivers driving through congested areas. If we impose these strategies and work with our partners, and if this proves to be a good way to reduce congestion, we can expand and take on congestion in Boston and beyond.
We could also try to create a campaign to encourage Boston to take public transit to work and school. Many benefits could come from this action; for instance, the MBTA would be able to lessen their debt and update their equipment.
Image of a possible road in the future that accommodates bikers, pedestrians, automobiles, etc,. This type of bike lane encourages bikers to use their bikes, because the setting seems safer than the one we usually have in Boston.
Image of an average toll booth. With congestion pricing, electronic toll both would be set up on the sides of the roads, with the machines possibly scanning license plates of drivers and sending them the bill later.
