    The grate for catch basin right in front of Columbus Park's basketball court needs to be cleaned of leaves to allow the street to drain. The water was too deep and the leaves to heavy for me to make a dent, can DPW please come and clear this area? Thanks!

    The sprinklers create a flooding issue. They are not aimed properly and are overused, creating pools of water on the sidewalk and mud pits in the grass. They are also aimed at the sidewalk and spray pedestrians. I go by regularly at 5:20 AM and this is when they turn on.

    several of the drainage basins on Winthrop Street have been Drain basins have been clogged for years, and are causing serious hazards to cyclist pedestrians and automotives. Water floods down the hill during rain storms and causes icing during the cold winter months.
  • Norwich Cir Medford, Massachusetts, 02155 - Medford

    This is erosion from Norwich Circle, probably from the grass strip on the westbound side of Norwich Circle where it slopes down to Grove Street. There is gully forming where there used to be a grass strip on Norwich Circle.

    Sand, native pebbles, and gravel washing down onto Grove Street. Probably OK to leave it. But it might be better to use the natural sediments to re-fill the gully on the grass strip, i.e. sweep them manually and then transport them by wheelbarrow the short distance.

    The grass strip between the sidewalk and road is perhaps public property. But perhaps the abutter(s) could be encouraged to maintain it.

    Mechanical sweeping has probably missed the sediments on the right side (in the photo). The similar sediments across the street are new.

    I believe I recently saw this exact same issue tersely posted earlier on this site but was unable to find it and it was closed to comments. I wanted to add a photo.

  • 100 Winthrop Street Medford, Massachusetts, 02155 - Medford
    The water drain is located on the raised crosswalk and thus higher than street level. For years, water discharge from the nearby building has frequently run to the street and pooled next to the drain. Unaware pedestrians on the sidewalk get splashed and I've witnessed cyclists wipe out on the resulting black ice during winter.
