Here, there isn't enough room to pass without shimmying.

Parking on the sidewalks has been going on for years. I used to walk down Elm Street to catch the 325 bus. It was extremely dangerous when I had to walk in the street. Then I decided to walk down Fulton Street, which wasn't any better as cars park on the sidewalk too.

Will forward to the Traffic Division.

This parking exemption is an agreement between the DCR (who owns the street) and the residents.They can park on the sidewalk but not block it. State Police Wellington barracks @ 781-396-0100 is responsible for enforcement you can contact them when you see the sidewalk is blocked.

Respectfully, Sgt, perhaps Medford Police could relay these kind of jurisdiction issues to MSP? It is a serious safety issue and calls from another department might expedite fixing the problem.

With respect there are no jurisdictions issues to relay. The State Police know they have jurisdiction and have a trooper assigned to patrol that area and is responsible for enforcement. Violations should be reported to the Wellington barracks when you see them 781-396-0100
