Beacon Hill changes make the park better

Re: "One week in, mixed reaction to park changes," Aug. 12. Thanks to the parks department for starting us on the changes we need in our thinking and acting toward an increasingly more wholesome community.

Thanks to the parks department for starting us on the changes we need in our thinking and acting toward an increasingly more wholesome community.

Beacon Hill Park is a jewel in our midst, frequented and enjoyed by parents and their children, joggers as well as bikers and persons on wheelchairs, sunbathers and "critter-lovers." It's a place of well-being.

The park is so much more peaceful, pollution-free and safe because of the reduced car traffic.

Ideally, the roads surrounding the park should have a reduced speed limit and maybe speed bumps installed. The roads are to provide access to the park, not to be thoroughfares.

A wonderful and courageous start to create some car-free areas in our beautiful city.
