Boston's Citywide Project Tracker offers residents a centralized platform to explore nearly 200 city investments across neighborhoods. The tracker focuses on various projects, including parks, schools, and safety enhancements, responding to community demands for greater transparency. User research informed the development of the tool, ensuring it meets the needs of both city staff and constituents.
