    My walk and especially where it meets curb needs shoveling every time it snows, as does the area by my back door and in front of my garage.

    Traffic light is causing excessive delays and traffic through side streets and more pollution. Remove it.

    Gas company opened road two years ago and never finished its final coat of asphalt.
  • 44-98 Hilltop Street Newton, Massachusetts - Newton

    Hi- Is it possible to install a street light on Hilltop Street, between 45 Hilltop and corner of East Side Pkwy (on same side of street as 45 Hilltop?) It is quite dark to that corner, worse in the winter.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Green light flickered and died at intersection at Hammond st and comm ave
  • 564 Hammond Street Brookline, Massachusetts - Newton
    There is an insufficient amount of lighting on Hammond Street between the Chestnut Hill train stop and Route 9. This poses a problem when it rains, as the sidewalk is uneven and full of holes at places on both sides of the street, and this problem is exacerbated in the winter when ice and heavy snow make the sidewalks even more dangerous to walk on in the dark. I have seen people slip at night because they couldn't see the sidewalk properly. Most importantly, as a young woman, I feel in danger walking home alone on this street in the dark, because I have been approached by strange men who I can barely see, and I have felt like I was being followed a few times. I propose that at least 3 more streetlights be added to this section of Hammond Street.

    ID markers COMM/ 1555. COMM/ 1575. COMM/1585. COMM/1611. Street lights with these labels have been out of order for at least one year.

    Fence/barrier has been broken for at least a year (and has been reported to 311 before). Please advise on status for repairing it.
  • Intersection Of Lexington And Commonwealth Newton, Massachusetts - Newton
    FREQUENTLY I find that the green turn light off of Commonwealth to Lexington is not timed appropriately. This results in a line of cars waiting to drive down Lexington lining up through the intersection because the Wolcott light is red. Frequently this causes unsafe driving and creative problem solving because cars are left out in the intersection as the Commonwealth light turns green and cars want to start driving.

    New bike racks on commuter rail side of Washington next to the shelter have been partially unbolted. Both racks have the same issue. Thanks!
  • Crosswalk RequestAcknowledged
    276 Church St Newton, MA 02458, United States, Newton, Massachusetts - Newton
    There is currently no crosswalk between the West Suburban YMCA and the fire department/opposite side of the street. The road is extra wide and has both a hill and a turn so it's not always possible to see oncoming cars. This is a heavily foot trafficked area - I regularly see kids running this road to get to/from their after school programs at the Y. I personally have to run across this street each day and have had some close calls. I am requesting the addition of a crosswalk to at least alert cars that someone may be crossing.

    View of oncoming traffic is obstructed by shrubs. Prior pruning effort did not improve visibility enough. Please trim further.
