    26 Berkeley Street Watertown, Massachusetts, 02472 - Watertown
    large hole in between grass and concrete, would like fixed
  • 76 Standish Road Watertown, MA, 02472, USA - Watertown

    Last year, the DPW dug up my sidewalk and grass strip to replace the sewer connection. After they finished, they filled the sidewalk with asphalt and the grass strip with gravel and rocks, which they assured me was temporary. I see that many sidewalks and grass strips are currently being repaired, so I would like to verify that my address is on the list. Note that National Grid is making the same type of repair at the level of the gas line to repair the mess they left; however, they said they will not touch the repairs needed related to the sewer line.

    Please let me know when I might expect the work to be done.

    Both 16 and 20 Parker St planting strips are consistently full of standing water breeding insects and disease attracts rodents and are a public safety concern There are no curbs PS this app wouldn't let me select just one category such as mosquitos -it automatically checked off all to apply, even after trying to deselect & select, several times
  • 39 Franklin Street Watertown, Massachusetts, 02472 - Watertown
    Due to no curb, we have a constant mud area that stays wet because of the shade and has a bad smell and attracts insects. Despite trying to dig up and dispose of the mud, over time, it keeps happening. Is it possible to get a curb or something installed?The tree roots are also exposed and worry that the health of the tree is impacted.

    They just finished work the other day outside here and now there is a large sinking hole as well as the sidewalk where they patched is separating and sinking. Please fix
  • 59 Channing Road Watertown, Massachusetts, 02472 - Watertown
    This has been filled in the past with rocks and they have washed away over the months when we have really bad rain. I have tenants with an infant and toddler and this is not safe for them or anyone else who parks in front of the house.
  • 61 Poplar Street Watertown, Massachusetts, 02472 - Watertown
    Constituent requested replacing the loam & seed on the grass strip across from 61 Poplar Rd. It has eroded and is currently a dirt ditch.
  • 57 Channing Road Watertown, Massachusetts, 02472 - Watertown
    There are no curbs on this section of the street even though their are curbs everywhere else. When it rains heavily, a creek runs down our street and floods this area pushing away dirt and rocks and eroding the side of the road. A curb would fix this problem
  • 56 Standish Road Watertown, Massachusetts, 02472 - Watertown
    The loam and seed need to be replenished in the strip between the sidewalk and grass, as they have been washed away by rain, creating a noticeable drop between the sidewalk and the granite curb. Additionally, raising the curb to match the height of the sidewalk could help prevent future washout.
