Town of Needham PLUS

There is a strong smell of gas on the sidewalk along Green Street.

Wire hanging down to the street.

There is a wire that extends from our house to the utility pole on the opposite side of the street. For some reason it is hanging much lower than it was before. I am concerned that buses, which travel down our street each morning and afternoon on their way to Pollard School might catch on the cable/wire.

The hanging utility wires in front of 46 and 32 Emerson have remained a problem for well over a month. One wire hangs down touching the ground. The other wire is low and easily reachable by children and dogs. I reported this in December, and have had no response. I don't know if these are phone wires or electrical wires, so I don't know who to call. I have tried to reach Eversource at the number you provided about this, but have spent long periods on hold, and I've had no response. Please let me know if I should be reporting this to another authority or department who would be responsible to fix this issue, and if so, please provide me with contact information. Thank you.

Down wire—probably cable. Was coiled and hanging off the pole. Recent wind storm blew it down. It was never connected to anything and is now a hazard to walkers, snow removal and kids in the neighborhood. Some should simply cut it down at the top.

resident called and said there is a part of the power lines swinging down. may st near garden st

There is a downed wire on the right side of the driveway- not sure which utility company it belongs to.

Parts of this utility box floated out during the storm. We do not want to put them back incorrectly and cause any issues. Can someone with experience fix this issue? Thanks

Apparently there are some wires hanging down from between two poles on the berm and they are low enough that they’re hitting the retaining wall at 21 Hill.

A large branch fell on the power lines during the storm. It is still hanging on the lines, and it is dangerous.
