Public Works - MS (Parks) assigned this issue to Human Services (Danehy Park)

Thank you for reporting your concern to City of Cambridge via Commonwealth Connect. We have reviewed the information you provided our staff and will be investigating this issue further.

They put it up for safety so no one gets hit with a lacrosse ball during practice or games you can walk around the field to get to the other side of the park during their permit times. We have requested funding for additional netting/fencing in a few field areas in the park and that is one of them. Hopefully we will be approved soon and your walk will be a little shorter during those times in the lacrosse season.

I’d they were to post signs stating the reason and that foe your safety please be aware careful it would buy a lot more then just randomly putting up ropes and barriers

Thanks
