City of Medford PLUS

There is no protected path for pedestrians on the northside of High Street across one of the busiest intersections around. Please paint a crosswalk here, even if there are ongoing studies about this area. It is an awful place to cross.

Yes, there is a crosswalk on the southside. But there is no way to get to it without running through unmarked open huge areas of pavement. This can has been kicked down the road for years, fix it already before there is blood on someone’s hands.

Pedestrian crosswalk never repainted after re-paving on Harvard Street. Makes it dangerous and difficult to cross the street.

Crosswalk in need of repainting

There is desperate need for crosswalk installation on this area of College avenue in front of the Joyce Cummings Center at Tufts. Safe access to the this highly trafficked building and the soon to open Green line station is seriously hindered by the lack of a nearby crosswalk. Pedestrians walk through traffic and dart between idling cars to cross the street to access the Cummings building. This will surely be exasperated when the green line opens next week, when only more pedestrian commuters will flood this area. The lack of a crosswalk here poses a serious risk to pedestrians. Vehicles are also in danger, forced to avoid jaywalking pedestrians. I hope that the city’s traffic and engineering department will prioritize the placement of a crosswalk in this area before a pedestrian is struck here.

Pretty much all the crosswalks along High St. and adjacent side streets need repainting. Maybe we need to try better paint?

Also, when I post this stuff it asks me if it’s the same open issue from two years ago. May be time to close out old requests.

This report is more about the bike lane. it's fading so much on this entire road, that it's dangerous for bikes because the drivers now lane split into two lanes because they can't see the paint and ignore the bike lane.

The crosswalk in front of Robinson Hall needs repainting as well as a blinking light for signage. This is an outstanding report on SeeClick Fix as well as an issue that Medford DPW has received phone calls about. I think it should be reported to the interim head of the DPW for review. Thank you!

The crosswalk was never repainted, extremely dangerous cross point on the corner of Summer st and Touro Ave. There should be a flashing cross sign, people go well above the speed limit around this bend. Only a matter of time before a person/child gets hit.

The crosswalk at Essex and High needs to be repainted and it could also use a flashing light or some other way to control speed. Kids in the neighborhood are terrified to cross due to the number of cars that have sped by without even slowing down.

There’s actually no crosswalk here, but could sure use one. I walk my dogs and jog here almost every morning, and to cross Washington Street and loop around back to Park or to head to Salem is difficult at the spot because drivers rarely stop at the stop sign. This is also a very heavily used route to the Salem Street buses in the morning, and again drivers almost never stop here Pedestrians are forced to walk on the southside of WashingtonStreet to the crosswalk then loop back up ad around -nr it’s ridiculous. Please put crosswalk hereser. It might actually force drivers to come to a full stop at the stop s and make the Washington Street Hadley Place intersection safer for everyone /n

It's been quite a while. here is an image of the car blocking the disability ramp onto spring crossing at Myrtle at this exact moment
