Thank you for reporting the site to the Town. We will be dispatching our inspector to the site to evaluate the sidewalk. Please allow us up to two weeks to conduct the inspection.

We are currently conducting inspections although there may be some delays in getting to a site with the CDC, State, and local restrictions. We are working remotely and will address all concerns registered. Our contractors are working with the same restrictions.

We are aware of the conditions in front of 1342. We conducted an inspection in May 2017 and the site is on our Master List. We will reinspect for current conditions and if they have gotten worse.

Thank you... I walk that stretch almost daily, passing many others and it can be treacherous.

@Engineering -- I did see that there was already a ticket filed for the area in front of 1342, but I'm referring more to the whole stretch from 1342 to the Children's Center. That's on me for not doing better with the address in the ticket.

If specific address is important, let's call it 1346–1354 Whitney. I don't know from sidewalk repair, so I don't know if repairing a quarter-mile stretch is not materially more labor than repairing a 3-section stretch.

We are aware there are many parts of this stretch that need repair.

Mostly we need two things:
1. The weather to warm up so our sidewalk contractors can come back.
2. Enough of a budget to conduct work. Since June of 2016, we have done over $3,000,000 worth of repairs. Conservatively, we have another $15 million dollars worth of repairs to go.

I hope this answers your question. If not, please feel free to call the Engineering Office at 203-287-7040 M-F 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and we will try to provide you the answers you need.

Mark Austin, Town Engineer

The Town currently repairs sidewalks based on the roads with the oldest complaints. Once we get to a street, we attempt to repair all sidewalk problems on the street. We are currently working on streets with claims and complaints from 2007 and are about to begin 2008 streets. Based on current funding and given this street is a 2008 street, we anticipate it to take from 0 to 4 years to get to the street.
