Description

Cambridge Street between Chestnut and Essex should be a huge embarrassment to the engineering department.

It is filled with potholes, cracks and temporary patches. Also the maintenance of brick sidewalks which is part of the promise to citizens of the historic district has not been addressed in more than 25 years.

Also in upper Cambridge there are temporary brick sidewalk patches of asphalt which is NO T consistent with the promise to at least replace sidewalks "in Kind".

How about some action here. If residents are required to tolerate commercial traffic, holiday t traffic, short cutting commuters and the every hour trolley then the street should at least be in good repair.
