Trip hazard/sidewalk

I’ve noticed many (perhaps most) slabs of sidewalk that were laid down a summer or two ago on my block (80 Standish) are starting to deteriorate. Bad concrete mix? It is ONLY the new areas. Just wanted to give the DPW a heads up

Deteriorated concrete apron and degrading catch basin at the entrance/exit to 1-3 Mt Auburn Street.

During an inspection by our insurance company, they noticed damaged sections of the public sidewalk. They have asked we contact you to have them repaired at your earliest convenience to reduce the possibility of someone tripping or falling.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Mike Torosian

Can the this portion of the sidewalk be repaired? Thank you!

The sidewalk was torn up due to previous street work or access to utilities for construction on abutting properties. Please restore the sidewalk. It is a trip hazard.

There is constantly a hose running from the house at 72 Townly RD, over the sidewalk, and into the street. Aside from the fact that someone walking might trip over it, it's clearly impeding anyone who might be in a wheelchair.
