Description
Manholes on Thames on Feb. 7 were opened by department employees. When they were put back the noises when cars went over them could be heard up and down upper Thames.
This has been an issue in the past. I used this Click it in April 2016 to rectify the situation. Gaskets were finally put in on the nearest manhole in front of 77 Thames Street seven months later.
Things were fine until yesterday. The two employees were polite and said they would look into it, but the noise is still there and heavy traffic makes the situation more than annoying.
I'm retired and in my 70's as is my next-door neighbor. We have been living here for decades and don't want to throw our backs out repositioning these covers.
Gaskets I was told were used the last time. I hope I don't have to wait seven months for this issue again to be resolved.
Thank you

No quite loud enough to wake the you know what, but still ...
