  • Grove St & Mark Ave Reading, MA, 01867, USA - Reading
    I am reaching out to submit a request for the consideration of safety improvements at the intersection of Mark Avenue and Grove Street. Specifically, the installation of a speed bump or, alternatively, a strategically placed mirror could significantly enhance visibility and safety for all users of this intersection. Currently, there exists a notable blind spot for drivers attempting to turn onto Grove Street from Mark Avenue, particularly from the left side. This issue is compounded by the tendency for vehicles to travel at high speeds, creating a considerable safety risk not only for drivers but also for pedestrians in the area, including many children.The introduction of a speed bump could serve to moderate vehicle speeds, while a mirror on the corner could improve visibility for drivers navigating this challenging turn. Either, or both, of these measures would be invaluable in preventing potential accidents and enhancing the safety and well-being of our community members.I am more than willing to engage in further discussion on this matter and explore how we can collaboratively address this safety concern. Thank you for your attention to this important issue and for your ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of our community.
  • 15 Aurele Circle Reading, MA, 01867, USA - Reading
    Hello, most nights per week, at approximately 10:50-11pm, a very heavy train passes and the house shakes for about 45 seconds. This train is either too heavy or going too fast. It’s not a commuter MBTA train. It is something much heavier. I’m fearful of house damage to tile and granite, etc. Please advise.

    It would be very helpful, and much safer if there were a crosswalk on Haven Street close to the post office. There is no crosswalk anywhere from Main Street to Atlantic Way and with the post office, residences, banks, offices, and restaurants, there is a good amount of foot traffic here and it can be dangerous to cross. This would help make the town be more walker-friendly and possibly decrease parking downtown if there was a better spot to cross in this busy area. Thanks for considering. fe

    HEAVEY BUSHES & BRUSH WITH THORNS BEING GROWN ON PUBLIC SIDE WALK . IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO WALK AND NARROWS THE SIDEWALK & CAUSES PEDESTRIANS TO WALK ON THE STREET . This home owner is using the sidewalk as a extension of his property . This is not being maintained for the public use . If it's ok to plant on a road verge, then I would gladly entertain the idea & and utilize my road verge & spread the word .Please have this removed .Do we have to wait for something bad to happen before this is taken care of ? It's bad enough since all the new condos and apartments have been constructed & main street traffic is now 2 lanes this street has been become a 1/4 mile race way for all the new peeps to rush down but thats another issue that will needs to be addressed . Times have changed and the taxes keep going up . Officials need to stop feeling defeated and playing politics & take action . Please take action . Thank you !

    Franklin St And Grove St. Reading, Massachusetts - Reading
    The utility pole on Grove St. at the very end of Franklin St. continues to bend at dramatic angles due to heavy weight of utility lines. This pole is severely overstressed and needs to be replaced to avoid a significant loss of power. It is very dangerous.
  • 15 Puritan Road Reading, Massachusetts, 01867 - Reading
    Gas project contractor sought access this a.m. to backyard at 15 Puritan. Meter disconnected per pic from backyard. Contractor never said he needed interior access. Contractor later left note with phone number and upon my wife calling, there is an auto message that the phone line is not in service. We are beyond upset with the contractor and we ask if the town can demand that the contractor come back and reconnect so that my family can have heat, a working stove ti cook dinner, and hot water tonight.

    Cars cannot see around the bend as people cross the street Is there a way to get a sign and/ or cross walk? There
    Is no sidewalk on the other side and therefore you are forced to cross the street from Bethune ave onto the other side It is also not very well lit so it makes it dangerous after dark
  • 34 Woodward Avenue Reading, Massachusetts, 01867 - Reading
    My neighbor has neglected his pool for at least 5 years, which has created an environmental hazard. The standing water is a stagnant cesspool, with many mosquitos breeding in it. I report this previously but I don't think anything was done. I have a newborn baby now, and with reports of West Nile Virus in the area I would like something to be done about this.
  • 87 Washington Street Reading, MA, 01867, USA - Reading
    87 Washington st. Is an accident waiting to happen. It’s been close to 15 years that no vacancy has been at this property. House has been falling apart built in the early 1900’s. I’m sure there are many rodents and raccoons living in there. The park is right next door and I see little kids going on the lawn. Like I said this is an accident waiting to happen and I don’t want to be the one to say “I told you so” Let’s get this taken care of. Tks, neighbor
  • 100 Main Street Reading, MA, 01867, USA - Reading
    The dumpster service at Calareso's is emptying the dumpsters prior to town guidelines of 6am. On 5/18 and 5/19 it was 3am, on 5/12 it was 4am, 5/5 4:07am, 5/1 4:02am. This is an ongoing issue, and the typical times are between 3 and 4am. This property is surrounded on 3 sides by residences, and this is inconsiderate to the residents in the area. Please inform the owners or the dumpster service of the problem so this can be addressed.

    754 Pearl Street Reading, MA, 01867, USA - Reading
    Raccoon and possible racoon family is terrorizing my family making our yard unusable. Racoons are hanging out in town storm water culvert for hours at time, possibly nesting there or nearby. Racoon is not afraid of people or pets. Conventional deterrent methods (moth balls, ammonia, bungees on barrels) are ineffective. Not living on our property. Photos available upon request.
