Description
Twice now this year I've watched large trailer trucks turn onto and get stuck on Warren Street. The last one took out a small tree on the corner of Macarelli Way, knocked over a sign, and hit a building. Today another one hit a large branch on a tree and had to back out onto Cambridge Street with the help of neighbors.
With all the construction in the area, there really needs to be clearer signage for trailer trucks to not come this way. The street is simply not wide enough and all of this traffic is causing damage to the neighborhood - beyond just the road conditions.
Thank you!

Another truck just had to back out onto Cambridge St. after hitting and damaging a tree branch. When backing out, it knocked over a sign on the corner of Warren and Cambridge in the process.
Can you please provide an update on this? When signage prohibiting through traffic for large trucks be installed?

Looks like fourth time's the charm (and honestly, it's been a few more than that even).
I understand that putting up signage is a monumental effort. It's just too bad that such a moonshot couldn't have been accomplished before a full size tree was shattered and public safety compromised.
Nice work everyone.
