We here at WalkUP Roslindale have been advocating and organizing around the Roslindale Gateway Path since our inception almost a decade ago and, thanks to the sustained leadership and partnership of the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University<\/a>, the Arboretum Park Conservancy<\/a>, LivableStreets Alliance<\/a>, the Tufts University Department of Urban and Environmental Planning<\/a>, Rozzie Bikes<\/a>, Hubluv<\/a>, the Solomon Foundation<\/a>, and of course the City of Boston (especially the leadership of Mayor Michelle Wu<\/a> as well as the Parks and Recreation Department<\/a>, the Department of Public Works<\/a>, and the Transportation Department<\/a>), we now have the first tangible result of those efforts – the Phase 1 extension from the terminus of the Blackwell Path at South Street alongside and then under the MBTA Needham Line tracks to a brand new and fully fledged Arboretum entrance on Arboretum Road. This is a great step forward in providing better access to this Emerald Necklace jewel to\/from this part of Roslindale. It’s long overdue and very welcome, and we will continue to advocate for the rest of the path going forward, so that improved access can be achieved at Archdale Road and at the Roslindale Village Commuter Rail Station. We also urge everyone to mark your calendars for Saturday, 19 July 2025, when the formal grand opening celebration will be held. We’ll share details on that as they become available. Many thanks to all of the players who made this possible!<\/p>\n
