Traffic Signals ArchivedYankee Division Highway Needham, Massachusetts - Needham
I would like to see the No Right Turn on Red sign amended so that during non rush hour times, folks can take a right on red.
I have waited at this light for what seems to be 3 to 4 minutes at 10 or 11 pm at night. A motorist can see down Kendrick to safely make a right on red.

Drain on spring road Archived34 Spring Road Needham, MA - NeedhamA drain near where the sidewalk and lawn meet at 34 spring road often releases a substantial amount of water onto the spring road sidewalk and road itself. It causes deterioration of the sidewalk and problems when the water starts freezing. Can this be looked at? It is causing safety issues for walkers on the street.

Length of light ArchivedKendrick Street Needham, Massachusetts - NeedhamThe length of the traffic signal at Hunting Road and Kendrick Street really needs to be changed. When traveling on Kendrick the light is 1 minute 20 seconds long. When traveling on Hunting Road the light is 20 seconds long. 4 cars can barely get through the light before it turns red. It can sometimes take 3 or more cycles to get through this light. This has been going on ever since the cycle was changed when the construction was completed. I have spoken several times to someone at the DPW about this so I know they are aware of the issue. They’re working with the state to try to get this changed. Does anyone have an update or a reason for not changing it? It should either be shorter than the almost minute and a half or make it a pressure light.

Brookline St. Needham, Massachusetts - NeedhamThe sidewalk in front of Mitchell woods has an area that is less than 1 ft. from the road, with no curb to protect children walking to school. A car that was speeding yesterday was able to veer off the road onto that portion with no barrier. Safety cones, stick markers or some sort of visual marker needs to be in place until the curb can be built up.

Need a crosswalk Archived443-505 Chestnut St Needham, MA, 02492, USA - NeedhamThere needs to be a crosswalk at Emerson Road and Chestnut. There is a lowered section of sidewalk to cross Chestnut but there is no crosswalk. There is no other place to cross Chestnut from Emerson Road.

Other Archived2 Ardmore Rd Needham Heights MA 02494, United States - NeedhamAbout a month ago you closed a ticket that was opened due to gravel/debris following rain. Yesterday it happened again, when the street flooded. There are three issues: the street is again loaded with gravel and rocks, the catch basins can’t handle the water (perhaps needing cleanout) and the source of the debris (a home construction site at the top of the hill which isn’t properly contained). Perhaps the building department needs to be involved.
