Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Efforts will be made to secure this area to protect someone from injuring themselves. The Town's insurance carrier will also be made aware of this damage so that a claim can be filed.

Hi, The DPW secured the area with a snow fence a month ago. When will DPW actually fix the crushed fence and correct the safety problem?

The ownership of the fence is the MBTA. They have been notified.

Thanks. I can see the vertical posts are up, and the job now needs the other poles and the fence fabric. Is there a plan to finish the work?

Bob unfortunately, as mentioned in the past, this area is property of the Railroad and not the Town of Needham. I have been very vocal and persistant with them to have them fix their fence and was pleased today to see some work had taken place, however I do not have their timelien on completion.

Bob if you would like to reach out to the MBCR, last I heard Jimmy was working on this issue. Contact number is 617 438 9853.

Thank. Yes, you told me earlier that it wasn't the Town to fix the fence, but I saw the DPW cones, and saw the ClickFix update, so I thought the Town came in to fix the MBCR's issue. I have called Jimmy, and he will ask his manager about the status of the final work.

Thanks for coming back to me.
