@boston.gov @mayorwu.boston.gov We love our Zero Waste days but could we do them more often? 45-minute line of cars this time. The team runs things really well — but they’re popular! 🔥
Line to get into the Boston zero-waste collection site at Millennium Park off VFW Pkwy starts just past Baker St., but it is moving, if slowly. Runs until 12.
This has been Subaru All Wheel HazWaste Traffic on the 3s.

Yes, a bit late perhaps, but we've gone to 5 Slices / Severe. No, won't be a blizzard, but the NWS is now predicting 18-20 for Boston, the very heart of the Greater French Toast Region. And the governor is heading to The Bunker! At least for a 12:30 p.m. press conference.
