Parking on Trumbull St during rush hours. (This is the first of three separate items I am going to make for Trumbull Street issues since the reconfiguration. None of these are pothole-type issues, but I'm hoping if enough of the commuters vote for these issues, they might be addressed.) Before the re-paving, there was no parking during rush hours on the section of Trumbull from Orange to Temple. Now, with parked cars in the right lane in the a.m. on the westbound side, traffic is backing up all the way back onto the traffic lanes of I-91. I'm sure the residents of Trumbull like having the new parking, but this has become a major safety issue. Many of the frustrated drivers, after creeping up to the light at Orange, end up blocking that intersection. During the p.m. rush hour, we have a similar, though less severe, problem on the eastbound side. I am hoping that observations will be made of the severity of these blockages, and that we can go back to having no parking until 9:30 a.m. on the westbound side, and no parking after 4 p.m. on the eastbound.
