Coasting On 95 Streets Allowed Citywide Except Two Areas
Police Commissioner O Meara names 95 streets where coasting is allowed on weekdays after school hours and until 10 pm. Restrictions may tighten if a physician reports danger to a patient near a coast, with special note that Charlestown and East Boston have few streets opened due to electric car track crossings.
