Bikeway Snow Plowing:

For the first 15 years of its existence, the Minuteman Bikeway was not plowed (except near Alewife). Plowing of the entire Arlington section of the path west of Thorndike field started in 2007 after a group of citizens pushed for it. Given that the path goes through some environmentally sensitive areas, no salting is done. Only the area from Thorndike Field to the Rt 2 Bridge receives any additional treatment after plowing, due to wetland and other property concerns.
