Sidewalk IssuesAcknowledged212-220 Burrill St Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottThis could be a bigger town issue than for this website, but something should be done about the sidewalks on Burrill under the train. Constantly seeing massive piles of bird poop, trash, even dead birds and parts of dead birds. There has to be a cost-effective option to preventing this problem.
Burrill St was once ranked by Boston Magazine as the best street to live on the North Shore, but I have to carry my toddlers under this bridge to keep them safe from touching or stepping on dead animals and feces that could harm them... -
Sidewalk IssuesAcknowledgedJessie St & Tidd St Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - Swampscott
Hello, I'm hoping that somebody can provide me with an update on the status of repaving Jessie St. It's in desperate need of repair, and the nonexistent sidewalk poses challenges for everybody, including neighbors with limited mobility, those who push strollers, and many young kids who are forced to walk in the street to get to the bus stop.
When I reached out in 2022, I was told it would be replaced in 2023. However, National Grid then informed DPW that the gas main needed replacing, and the paving would need to be delayed until a year after the gas main was completed.
Unfortunately, the gas main wasn't replaced in 2023 like planned, but it was replaced in the spring of 2024, and it has now been 1 year. Last year, the director of the DPW said it would be repaved in 2025, and he was committed to also "including a new sidewalk and berm with the paving project".
I, and many of my neighbors, would love any updates about the status of this project. Thanks!
