    East Shore New Haven, CT, USA - East Shore
    This is a wish list request. The road through East Shore Park is an enjoyable place for bicyclists, in part because there are no cars. However, there are numerous cracks running across the road that make the ride bumpy. If the public works department cleaned the dirt and grass out of the cracks and patched them, the ride would be much smoother, plus the road would last longer.
    A related improvement would be to repaint the chain across the road at both ends so it is more obvious, as it would be easy for someone to cycle right into it because they are not expecting a chain to be there. Even better, put a length of PVC pipe over part of the chain to make it very obvious.
  • 838 Whalley Ave New Haven 06515, United States - Westville

    Dangerous storm surge area.

    There were two ‘geysers’ coming out of street during Tuesday’s storm. I have never seen anything like it in 26 years in New Haven.

    Wonder if adding bioswales on flat section of Fountain Street would help alleviate run off from the two hills on 243. Or some other infrastructure upgrades.

    This intersection was severely flooded with plumes of water rising out of manholes.

    I tried to avoid it by taking west rock street, and barely made it through the first dip in the road.

  • Lighthouse Point Park - East Shore

    I just returned from a morning visit to Lighthouse Park. While the common terns and osprey were beautiful, a few other things were not:

    1. Speeding cars -- people fly down the driveway in the park. Perhaps install some speed bumps and more signage about the speed limits in the park?
    2. The bathroom situation is confusing, and there is no open snack bar!
    3. There was litter everywhere, likely leftover from the weekend. I realize that the parks department is low on staff, and no one should be littering to begin with, but why wasn't it cleaned up? It makes for a really unpleasant visit to the beach. What's more, the park's summer camp kids play in that area -- and it's filthy. If all else fails, give the kids some plastic gloves and some trash bags, and ask them to clean up the sand. Maybe that will inspire a new generation to think twice about littering.

    Please put more money into our parks department. It's ridiculous that we have a mayor who says he's pro-environment when he allows our parks to fall into disrepair (and, worse, promotes the expansion of the airport in a migration corridor!).

  • 38 Sherland Ave New Haven CT 06513, United States - Fair Haven Heights

    Last year (spring 2023) SCG started a 3 phase project to replace the gas lines on my street (Sherland Ave). SCG completed 2 of the 3 phases, summary below:

    - Completed placing the new lines in the street
    - Completed the internal house gas line
    - Open, they did not finish connecting & relocating the gas meter outside of the house

    I have reached out to SCG but they have not called me back.

    Questions
    - Do you know when SCG will be completing the 3rd phase?
    - Why there has been a delay?
    - Who else should I contact?

    Thanks for your help with this matter.
