Description
Something needs to be done about the trash and homeless encapments under the birdges- its been going on for years. The picture taken on Madison btwn 5th and 6th is on a “good” day. Many days on Jackson st and Madison st under the bridge, you simply cannot walk on the sidewalks due to all the rubbish. I retirerate prior reports - needles, broken glass, rotten food - the smell is revolting. I have to walk in the bike paths, and sometimes theres so much trash you have to go briefly on the road itself. Its very dangerous for pedestrians.
