    Mile 149.5 Us Hwy 20 W Watertown, MA, 02472, USA - Watertown
    Constituent reported that as you cross No. Beacon towards Mt Auburn the stop light and walk signal right in front of the Panera building is off-kilter and at an angle so it cannot be clearly seen from the No Beacon/ Riverside St corner. it seems the walk signal/ stop light illumination heading towards Mt Auburn (once again crossing No. Beacon) is dimmer than the reverse direction.

    Outdated sign should be removed
  • Arlington St & Mount Auburn St Watertown Town, MA, 02472, USA - Watertown
    Pavement markings for lane directions need to be added or signs put up indicating which lanes go straight vs. left or right at the intersection outside of CVS for Eastbound Mt. Auburn street. Have already witnessed several near accidents due to cars in the far left out of the three lanes going straight instead of turning left and almost colliding with the middle lane.
  • 40 Howard St Watertown, MA, 02472, USA - Watertown
    This sign is so messed up. Is overnight parking allowed or not? Why is there a threat of towing if overnight parking is allowed? When is overnight parking allowed? This is the worst sign I have ever seen in the USA. It even rivals the worst sign I have seen in Asia that has been poorly translated to English.
  • 340-348 Arsenal St Watertown Town, MA, 02472, USA - Watertown
    Should there really be a stop sign on the bike path on Arsenal St at the Lexus dealership’s driveway? Only one direction has it.

    Small reflective road sign is broken (with its post) and is laying in the southbound lane of School St. It it is one of two signs from the island on School Street near intersection with Mount Auburn. Safety hazard.

  • 90 Lowell Ave Watertown, MA, 02472, USA - Watertown
  • 113–137 School St Watertown MA 02472, United States - Watertown
    The tall shrubs/plants along the curb (next to the sunflowers) on School Street here completely block visibility when turning left onto School St from Boylston Street. If they could be trimmed down it would a much safer turn onto a busy street.

    All shrubbery to the right of the Engine 4 bay (right side of building as you are facing it) and down the property line along the same side of the building are in need of pruning.
