Description: Is there a painted crosswalk: [No] Please provide any additional information if needed: [text of e-mail sent to Mayor's Off: NOTE: intersection in question must be Tremont @ Avery and MBTA and BTD Sign Shop are getting ccs on this request The double lenght Silver Line bus stops at the corner of Boyston and Avery Street -- by the Commons. Whenever a double lenght Silver Line bus stop at the Bus Stop Sign, the rear of the bus extends across the cross walk. It makes it difficult for people to cross the street at the crosswalk. Moreover, while waiting to cross the street the bus's rear engine noise and exhaust is very uncomfortable, as it is right at the crosswalk. There is a very simple solution -- move the bus stop sign down 20 feet down towards Boyston St...this will free up the crosswalk. Thanks.]
