The reason this request is being closed is because this system is meant to alert the city of issues in need of repair. However, this is an on-going, long-term project that has already been scheduled . Beacon Street will undergo a full-depth reconstruction, which means that crews will dig all the way down to the base layer to completely replace the roadway. The new surface will thus be far less prone to pot-holing than it is currently. Prior to road resurfacing, water and sewer pipes will all be repaired or replaced as well. This work is ongoing through the summer and fall of 2015 and will resume in 2016.
So while a “complete” repaving, or other similarly large requests cannot be done at this time at this location, the city will gladly accept reports of immediate issues that can be addressed with smaller, more immediate actions (e.g. filling a pothole or clearing a catch basin).
