Do y'all actually plan to do anything this year? I'm not the only person to report this. I'm pretty sure these reports go into a black hole.

I also reported this last year. Those car carriers park there everyday which makes the road narrow and dangerous to drive, especially at night. I believe there is an overnight parking ban started from Nov, why there is no ticket even on snowing days?

Good evening. This situation is an aggravation for those that live in and around the area we know. We have been dealing with this issue for years and have solicited help from a number of local government departments. I have spoken to personally everyone who has called us on this issue. The situation we find ourselves in is that H.F. Brown Way is NOT a public way. The town cannot enforce or enact local traffic rules and orders on it. We can make sure its not blocked, as it has to remain open to those choosing to use it ,but cannot enforce parking regulations. The DPW has to make sure it is accessible, including for emergency vehicles, but they cannot maintain it. In Natick there are a number of these streets, including a large portion on both ends of Kendall Lane. If anyone wishes to discuss this further, please call me at 508-647-9518 at your convenience.

Unfortunately, nothing is going to be done until a serious accident occurs here. And when it does occur, who is responsible? The carrier owners? DPW? There are now almost always 3-4 large carriers stationed there and on weekends when the other side of the street is filled with cars for those attending the church there, the road becomes narrow and does not allow for two-way transit. Does this constitute "blocking" then? These carriers are also parked right next to a curve which increases the risks of an accident.

These car carriers have now started parking on the public way (Newfield Dr, which is an accepted town road). This means that the town could implement a no parking or no vehicles over a certain weight rule. Newfield Dr was not built to handle the volume of truck traffic it currently receives.

There also appears to be at least one very simple solution to this entire problem: ban trucks over a certain GVW except for local deliveries from the accepted portion of Kendall Lane in Natick and ban trucks over a certain GVW except for local deliveries from Newfield Dr (which is an accepted town road). The only other way to get to this particular location is via Kendall Ln from the Framingham side, and I doubt one of these vehicles could safely navigate that road.

There is at least one other road in the area where vehicles over a certain weight are banned: Hartford St, so this appears to be completely possible.
