    66-120 Carleton St Hamden, CT, 06517, USA - Hamden
    Homeowner at the corner of Augur St and Carleton St has not trimmed bushes in several years and they have grown to the point where the sidewalk is nearly unusable. Bushes need to be trimmed significantly.

    This sidewalk is getting way to overgrown along Putnam I can barely pass by
  • 625 Newhall St Hamden, Connecticut, 06517 - Hamden

    People are walking in the street opposed to the sidewalk because of the overgrown brush and grass. Annually, for the last 24 years, I have been report this property with Hamden’s planning and zoning Department, and no one responds to this issue. Last year I paid to have someone mow this property while I trimmed the limbs that were protruding out of the fence.

    Why can’t Hamden’s resident benefit from services we already pay for annually in our taxes. I’m sick of begging for a service we are Entitled.

  • Underhill Rd Hamden, Connecticut, 06517 - Spring Glen
    There are shrubs so overgrown at the intersection of Underhill Rd and Broadfield Rd, that the sidewalk is impassible.
  • 2901 Dixwell Ave Hamden, Connecticut, 06518 - Hamden_Feature 001
    The retaining wall between the Miller Library Building and the DeMatteo Building at 2911 Dixwell Avenue is a safety hazard. I do not know if this wall is town property but the top 3 levels of brickwork is not secure and many bricks have fallen! Many more are detached and ready to come down. The structural integrity of this wall is totally compromised and should be inspected as soon as possible to prevent any pedestrian injuries or the total collapse of the wall.

    These have been damaged and hazardous for over a year. This intersection has a crosswalk and congregate housing nearby. Someone using a walker, wheelchair or that is vision impaired is at severe risk of falling from these broken treads.
  • 102 Benham St Hamden, CT, 06514, USA - Hamden
    Resident called in to ask that this property be inspected for a car that is always parked in the sidewalk area of the driveway. With the heavy snow around already blocking most sidewalks, this is very inconsiderate. Please notify them of the issue. Thank you.

    Sidewalk is impassible. Trash, and overgrown grass and weeds, need to be taken care of.
  • Dixwell Ave & Scott St Hamden, CT, 06514, USA - Hamden
    A section of concrete is raised several inches above the flat walking surface of this sidewalk. This sidewalk corner and crosswalk features a tactile mat for those with vision impairments. The raised concrete causes an easy trip hazard to anyone who already expects the crosswalk corner to be unobstructed for ALL pedestrians of ALL capabilities, especially if a person steps to their left for someone approaching who needs to use the tactile mat for their cane, chair, or other travel aid. If you look closely, the concrete appears to be cut in such a precise manner that relieves the town employee of responsibility because "the concrete isn't blocking the crosswalk," but the white paint on the road being so close to the precision cut of concrete can just as validly be an offense to the ADA and lead any person who is crossing towards Scott Street directly into the obstructed path of the raised concrete that's sitting in the middle of the lowered surface of the crosswalk corner. This is not the only area in Hamden where the paint of a crosswalk directly leads straight into a raised obstruction that would qualify as ignoring the ADA and just general accessibility as that term exists. Whoever last worked on this sidewalk corner definitely knew about this, but chose a careless, dangerous, sarcastic, and (frankly in this situation) unlawful way to handle the situation. Please fix this. Thank you.
  • Shepard Ave Hamden, CT, 06518, USA - Hamden
    Also the sidewalk on Shepard Avenue between Apex and Mix is not safe for pedestrians. It's completely covered in leaves, branches, and downed trees. Thank you
