The topo lines are dense there!
And where exactly is route 2A? Isn't it Mass Ave? But Mass Ave changes from route 2A to route 3 around Arlington right?
Yes, the Concord Ave hill starts at the intersection of Concord Ave and Pleasant St (Rt 60). It's less than a mile long, but it does go up!
2A only coincides with Mass Ave for a short distance in Lexington before it veers left and is named Marrett Road. At the other end, 2A stops in Arlington at the intersection with Route 3. 2A runs parallel with Mass Ave through Arlington and then crosses it in Lexington. Mass Ave also coincides with routes 4 and 225 for a while in Lexington.
