Burlington, VT PLUS

The sidewalk all along NorthAve here is in abysmal condition. There are sections that are just concrete dust and rocks.

The sidewalk outside of ~140 N. Union street has 1 pavement block which is very uneven (others have been ground down). My 79 year-old mother tripped on it 7/22/21 fell, and broke her left wrist.

there are NO sidewalks on standbury but on Dale there are two lets move one from Dale to Standbury safety issues for kids, seniors and pets yr round cars are parked all over and road is very broken up and bumpy

There is no sidewalk on either side of the south end of Richardson St. This is a problem because it forces pedestrians to walk in the road. Richardson St is a major route for kids and families walking from South Meadow to Champlain Elementary and anyone else who maybe walking in this direction. There is one gentleman who gets around in a wheelchair who has to navigate traffic just to get to the sidewalks on the rest of Richardson St. Cars are often parked along the sides of the street which create a small corridor for cars to pass through. When pedestrians are also in this corridor it is very unsafe. I have seen and been part of many close calls between cars and pedestrians along this strip of Richardson St.

This is just one small area of the sidewalk on Rockland—all of Rockland Street and all of the south side of Van Patten (leading to Rockland) from the intersection with Brook Drive is a complete mess. Nearly all of the squares are broken, some not just uneven and cracked but actually missing large pieces (up to half the square in multiple places). It’s dangerous as it’s not only very uneven, but the holes fill and freeze over with ice on the winter, and are very messy and muddy in the spring/summer/fall. Especially treacherous or impossible for strollers, small children, or elderly residents to use these sidewalks. Please help!

Sidewalk is cracked and needs to be repaired

Heavy ponding of water every time it rains.

There are two panels that are cracked and sinking causing tripping issues. Please repair.

Political messages have been written in the newly poured sidewalk in front of this home. Messages are similar to signs posted on homeowner's property.

Good morning,

I’ve left a voicemail message but I’m reaching out via email.

My 89 yr old mother is a resident at McAuley Square and walks daily from her home. She was out yesterday morning and lost her footing on sidewalk that is in need of repair. The sidewalk is near the corner of Mansfield Ave & Colchester Ave.

I’m writing you in hopes that this situation will shed light on the danger to pedestrian foot traffic. It is also my hope that the repairs needed will be done sooner vs later to avoid someone else getting injured.

Your attention and prompt response will be most appreciated.

Sincerely,

Please replace the sidewalk on the north side of Catherine Street from Hayward heading east. It is badly damaged and hazardous.
