The Boston City Council held a debate on Wednesday, Sept. 17, over a proposed ordinance targeting delivery vehicles such as mopeds and e-bikes to enhance pedestrian safety. Councilor Ed Flynn introduced the ordinance, citing concerns about reckless driving by delivery drivers and advocating for traffic-calming measures, such as raised crosswalks and stricter regulations. "For nearly eight years, I've said that pedestrian safety is one of the biggest issues we face in the city," he stated. Some worried about how quickly the ordinance could be implemented and its potential impact on vulnerable populations. Pepén called for improved registration of the vehicles used for delivery purposes and compliance measures.
