Bike & Pedestrian Committee · Meeting of January 5, 2026
Watertown's new Bike Ped Signals and Traffic Safety Subcommittee finalized its scope. The subcommittee met January 5 with Subcommittee Chair Adrian Hauck, Committee Chair Jamie Burke, Eileen Botti, Shanta Keller, and staff support Zeke Mermell, establishing focus on bicycle and pedestrian signal strategies and crash data. Arsenal Street was identified as a high-priority corridor with multiple issues, and two approaches were discussed: developing formal guidelines for future signal designs or pursuing location-specific improvements.
The subcommittee planned outreach to City Engineer Tyler Glode and discussed inviting Sergeant David Sampson of the Watertown Police Department's Traffic Division to provide crash data at future meetings.
