HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
Students driving down Peabody Street into Harvard Square will be compelled to make a detour around the street car incline, if a plan recently submitted to Mayor Russell is approved by the City Council. The proposed plan, which was drawn up by the Governor's committee on street and highway safety, calls for the installation of a rotary traffic system around the incline so that all traffic will proceed to the right. If the recommendations are carried out the number of accidents in the Square is expected to be greatly decreased.
According to the new system, southbound traffic will be permitted only on the northern stretch of Massachusetts Avenue bounding the subway incline, while northbound traffic will be shifted to Peabody and Cambridge Streets.
