Old issues.

This is an old issue but NOTHING has been done. I even spoke to Bernie Lynch about it. The scene you see in this picture has changed in only aspect - the cross walks are even more worn out and impossible to see. DO NOT CLOSE AN ISSUE that has not been resolved. That is dishonest and it is wrong.

No need for accusations of dishonesty. It was a simple mistake. This issue has been forwarded to DPW.

I received the following message from John Cooper when I re-submitted your request to him.

Crosswalks are painted once a year this was done in the spring it will be redone in the spring painting of crosswalks are done for the year temperature needs to be at 45 or above

Thank you

This is not fixed at all! The street looks worse than in this picture. This is dishonest to close something you did not fix. You did this before. I should not have had to report this in the first place. Middlesex is a major thoroughfare and the city should realize itself that the cross walks here and on Pawtucket st from School all the way through Middlesex to Wood street are a disgrace with respect to cross walks and street markings.

I want to know who falsely closed this and I want a complete promise IT STAYS OPEN UNTIL IT IS REALLY FIXED OR A SCREEN SHOT OF THIS DISGRACEFUL FALSE AND DISHONEST CLOSING GOES ON THE BLOGS. YES IT IS DISHONEST AND AN ABUSE OF THIS SERVICE. DO NOT DO THIS UNTIL ALL THE CROSS WALKS ARE REPAINTED.

Crosswalks are painted once a year? NO SIR! I want a report here on when they were painted during the past six years. Maybe then you will get my point. This was reported in the spring. It was not done. Was it done the prior spring? Now you want me to believe it will be done next? Close it when it is fixed.

This remains an issue throughout the lower highlands. Obviously it cannot be corrected until this spring. The cities claim that these crosswalks are repainted annually are false. We have gone through entire summers with them in this state. This issue was raised in the spring and the crosswalks could have been painted then. They were not. Cross walks were painted at the juncture of Wood and Middlesex so crews and equipment were in the area. Still nothing was done. This is an issue on Middlesex and Pawtucket st from School to Middlesex. These are major thoroughfares and crosswalks must be done every single year. They are not.

Thank you for reporting. This issue has been assigned to the Transportation Engineer for follow-up.

I would also like to know from them when the past two times Middlesex has been serviced. I do not think it's being serviced frequently enough. I don't think motorists can even see the cross walks at this point anywhere from School and Pawtucket Street to Wood street. Generally the entire upper highlands street markings are not being serviced frequently enough.

Geoffrey, I generally agree with you about the problem, although crosswalks do get painted on. I see that part of the problem on Middlesex is that there is frequently no defined pedestrian space (especially on the south side) and that there is nothing to slow the cars down between the Wendys/Pawtucket Street and Wood street except other cars trying to whip out quickly in the small breaks in the traffic.
