Even with the new lane, the existing bicycle lane will remain in place, a DCR spokeswoman said today. DCR is adding a temporary car lane to a small portion of the Arborway while maintaining an on-road bike lane for cyclists. This temporary lane is intended to address local concerns about traffic as DCR continues to work with the community and stakeholders on the Arborway Improvement Project, which is intended to improve bike and pedestrian access to the Arborway. The entire project stretches from Kelley Circle - the smaller rotary by Jamaica Pond - to Forest Hills. DCR removed a longer second lane in 2021 as it added bicycle lanes around the rotary and the roads that connect to it.
