  • 6 Millbrook Rd Westwood MA 02090, United States - Westwood
    Drivers on 109 rarely yield to pedestrians (including kids) in the crosswalk. Can we install touch-activated, solar powered flashing lights on cross walk signs like this one?
  • Boston Providence Tpke & University Ave Town of Norwood, MA, 02062, USA - Norwood
    Route 1 heavily backed up in the AM, very short signal for north trafffic and minimal traffic on University Ave
  • 02090 Westwood, MA, USA - Westwood

    Upon reviewing the "Traffic Rules and Orders" (Schedule No. 3: Isolated Stop Signs), I have noticed there are so many incorrect roads and even an incorrect location for one. The list below shows the corrections needed.

    - Beechnut St & Oriole St : should be Beechnut Rd & Oriole Rd
    - Cashman Ave & Pond St : should be Eastman Rd & Pond St
    - Burke St & Stern St : should be Burke St & Stearns St
    - Blue Hill Drive & University Drive : should be Blue Hill Dr & University Ave
    - Glacier Ave & Wilson Way : should be Glacier Dr & Wilson Way
    - Fisher St & French St (Eastbound) : no stop sign here, there should not be one, not sure why this is inputted into Schedule No. 3
    - Lassalle Rd & Winter St : should be Lasalle Rd & Winter St
    - Gay St & Washington St : there is a traffic signal at this intersection, no stop sign, shouldn't be in schedule No. 3
    - Ramp from Rt 128 S & Blue Hill Drive : no longer exists, no stop sign.
    - Ramp from Rt 128 N & Blue Hill Drive : no longer exists, no stop sign.
    - two inputs for Smith Dr & East St: this is only one intersection and only has one stop sign. Duplicate input into the schedule No 3 should be removed
    - Well Ave & Pond St : should be Wells Ave & Pond St
    - Wellington St & Colburn St : should be Wellington Dr & Colburn St
    - Wellington St & Wagon Rd : should be Wellington Dr & Wagon Rd

    Thank you in advance for looking into addressing these issues.

  • Washington St Westwood, MA, 02090, USA - Westwood
    Is there anything we can do to help keep speeds down on Washington Street? With the warmer weather coming, more children are out bike riding, walking, running after school. Thank you for anything you can do.
  • 172 Carroll Ave Westwood, MA, 02090, USA - Westwood

    I am requesting the installation of speed bumps on Carroll Ave heading towards route 1 north bound. The speed limit is currently 30MPH and is being abused by both neighborhood residents and people cutting through to Route 1. Please contact me ASAP in regards to this issue at 781-366-3236 or Kevinkersh@gmail.com

    Thank you!

    East Street Westwood, Massachusetts - Westwood
    Saw the bridge accidents on the news. Suggest putting up poles with same height barrier over the street before the bridge. The bridge is too late for a sign about low clearance. People need the impact before the bridge. Insurance companies would probably gladly pay for it. Worth a try.
  • Smith Dr Westwood, Massachusetts, 02090 - Westwood
    Very difficult to turn left out of Smith Dr onto East St. More traffic now than before and cars drive fast on East St. Traffic light is most likely needed
  • 22 Strafford Road Westwood, MA, 02090, USA - Westwood
    Strafford Road is increasingly becoming a cut through, and cars are driving very fast. There are lots of new kids and neighbors with teenagers on bikes. Can we add speed bumps? I have seen them on other roads.

    6–12 Millbrook Rd Westwood MA 02090, United States - Westwood
    Would it be possible to clear the brush between Mill Brook (the stream) and the road from High St to the beginning of Greenhill Rd? Would really improve the entrance to our neighborhood. Thanks for considering!
  • 31 Sterling Road Westwood, MA, 02090, USA - Westwood
    Speeding vehicles have always been an issue in our neighborhood, but with the increase in delivery vehicles the problem has increased dramatically. There are three turns that can be very difficult to see around and with no sidewalks and lots of kids playing in dogs walking this is a safety issue. Speed bumps on Windsor Road (where speed accelerated because it is downhill), Oxford Terrace, and Sterling Road would be very helpful.
  • 7 Strafford Road Westwood, MA, 02090, USA - Westwood
    The new lights on the DPW building next to the field are on all night and aim towards houses. Can either a hood be put on them to be aimed down, or a timer? There is a bylaw in the town that lights need to be turned off in the fields after 10 PM. Does this apply to these lights as well?
  • Tree hazardsAcknowledged
    Wentworth St Westwood, MA, 02090, USA - Westwood
    There are several dead/dying trees on the Wentworth Conservation area that are posing a danger to the public and the house at 56 Wentworth Street. One has fallen on the street, narrowly missing utility lines and it is now lying on the side of Wentworth St. The trees are poised to fall and take down utility wires and damage homes and property.
