What so they can ignore it too ! Police don't do anything about these issues

What is the purpose of reporting it here.

My main concern is not this specific instance, but the general pedestrian-unfriendliness of the downtown area due (in part) to lack of enforcement of laws. The point is to bring attention to that issue.

On my walk from Wooster Square, I was also nearly run over by a car turning illegally on red at the corner of Union Street and Chapel and by a bicyclist in the street riding through a red light at Church and Chapel. When this truck parked directly in front of a group of pedestrians waiting at the corner for the light to change, I felt the need to report it in order to say that we need more law enforcement to make this area safe for pedestrians.

Thank you for your post. In answer to the question about 'why here' - I have heard your issue and have asked for increased traffic enforcement from the NHPD. Additionally, Peter Webster and I have requested a speed trailer for the Chapel Street section by Wooster Square.

Thanks! I think that would be good for that section of Chapel. I usually cross Chapel into the park several times a day, and the traffic there is often intimidating for pedestrians in the crosswalk.

Truck has moved

Thanks for fixing this issue!

LOL TRUCK MOVED, A HOT MESS.
BEN, I'M GLAD 2 SEE U CARED ENOUGH ABOUT PEDESTRIANS CROSSWALKS BEING OBSTRUCTED!
