Mayor Marty Walsh announced on Monday that Boston restaurants will soon be bringing back outdoor dining.
Starting on April 1, or as soon as the weather permits, city restaurants will be allowed to begin their outdoor dining programs. “Outdoor dining was one of the bright spots of this experience last summer and fall. We worked together to create safe and accessible conditions on both public and private space,” wrote Mayor Marty Walsh on Twitter.
