Description

The Allston Multimodal Project is a plan to improve bike and pedestrian connectivity, the Charles River waterfront, rail connections, and would create a new urban area. Additionally, I-90 will also be realigned to be an at grade road. 
————————
Bike and pedestrian improvements: A new bike path, called the Allston Community Path would be constructed. Not only that, the Dr. Paul Dudley White Path (Charles River Bike Path) would be reconstructed and improved, a better Franklin Street Pedestrian Bridge, and a new overpass over Soldier Field Road to connect the PDW and Allston bike paths. A new Malvern Street transit and bike and pedestrian road would create a short walk/ride to the Packards Corner stop.
————————
Public transport improvements: A new West Station with local bus service. This station would serve the Framingham/Worcester Commuter Line, and a proposed new line to Kendall and North Station using the Grand Junction ROW.
————————
Other improvements: A smaller interchange and I-90, avoiding the need to maintain the viaduct, a new neighborhood, replacement of the Cambridge Street Bride, and much more.
————————
Note that all of the routes shown are from task force meetings or concept designs, so these routes are definitely not guaranteed.
