My Westfield Connect Watch

Hello,
I would like to request a pedestrian signal + traffic signal for the Wychwood rd & Woodland ave crossing; A lot of kids living on the woodland avenue houses and Wychwood road cross the road to go to Wilson and the lack of a signal is a serious danger. I would technically like to request a side walk for woodland avenue to allow pedestrians to walk safely but would like to start with a pedestrian signal + traffic signal for that intersection.

Thanks,
Akila

Large potholes by circle in Westfield.

The road is an absolute disaster from 958 prospect heading towards Barchester. It’s has numerous potholes and the surface is totally broken.

The tree in front of 216 kimball is still not removed and seems very dangerous. It caused our last power outage and we were lucky no one was hurt or worse when a massive branch feel and cut the power line. I requested on aug 16 or so that it be removed. The response was it’s on the list. We are two months on and it’s still up and still damaged and dangerous to public safety. Appreciate a heads up on when it will be removed.

Litter and debris strewn across this property is a disgrace. Property owner has allowed property to fall into deplorable condition. Are there no property maintenance standards - or just no enforcement?

This tree is old and damaged. A massive limb fell in the recent storm and took out the power line (for going on five days now) and closed the street for two days. someone could have been badly hurt. Tree needs to come down immediately before something much worse happens. We and our neighbors and the people who pass thru here are in danger.

The two town trees in front of my house 728 Shackamaxon and the one in between my house and 722 have a lot of growth of annual branches (what I call suckers) from trees Last year someone from town came out and took off Would appreciate doing again as sight lines backing out of driveway is greatly impaired

New asphalt poured on Madison Ave is thicker than the old asphalt and is partially blocking multiple sump pump drains on the curb. This is affecting multiple houses.

A few weeks ago, we noticed workers putting asphalt down onto the road in front of 240 Massachusetts Street, we are unsure if it was the Town DPW or private landscapers.

The asphalt they put down is now blocking the flow of water down the street to the sewer on the corner. Each time it rains there is a puddle that seems to get wide and longer.

The water will not flow down the street now at all. This spot has always been problematic, especially come Winter when the water/snow freezes into ice and this is a concern for the upcoming Winter.

It is also concerning as now mulch from the tree that has no garden edging is falling into the puddle, grass clippings, and even insects are gathering like a dirty pond.

It just looks terrible and folks have had to park on different areas of the road as you literally step into a puddle exiting your vehicle if you park there. Come the winter it will be very dangerous as the USPS mail carrier parks here as well as other couriers and private citizens.

The water will not flow down the street, we kindly request someone to come out and fix it so the water can flow down the street to the sewer on the corner.

On the northeast corner of Linden Ave at the Oak intersection, overgrown hedges growing into the street Looks like property belonging to 756 Oak Str but it's the side on Linden Ave

Ever since the traffic lights were enabled, there is a huge amount of traffic that accumulates during peak times in the morning and afternoon. It is insane how much people have to wait to go through that light. I’ve been living in Westfield for almost 3 years and I’ve never seen it so bad. The traffic light doesn’t help at all.
