The towns sidewalks are disinterested in from if my driveway. They have created a dangerous surface for walking and biking. Several people have fallen and children have fallen off bikes and scooters when they hit those patches .

Resident called in to have their sidewalks evaluated for sidewalk replacement program.

We understand that the long-awaited re-paving of Armory St. is under way and we are quite grateful. However, I earlier notified Public works that two driveway aprons on the lower end of Armory are substandard and need to be addressed before new paving has begun. We have received no messages concerning the replacement of these aprons. Please let us know what can be done to ensure a quality job.

I’ve reached out several times with regard to the condition of our sidewalk. They are disastrous and extremely dangerous. Your Engineer inspected last year and concurred. We can’t shovel or snow plow them and in fact when previously tried doing a stone flew and shattered our screen door. I’ve got 5 young grandchildren and one of these days I am terrified that they are going to get hurt. Is there a plan to repair/replace? I’ve only been asking for the last 11 years!!

There are 2 areas in need of repair. This is one area right by a tree recently removed by the town last autumn. The other area is further down the sidewalk, also raised, but not visible in this picture. Both present a significant tripping hazard

Since this was still not fixed my father has hurt his back. We had to spray paint it so people can see the hazard. It was acknowledged and accepted for repair 9 months ago? Hamden needs to do better. I will be contacting other resources since it is not be taken care of.
