Ace Hardware Store Grounds Look Shabby Archived

480 South Main Street - Middletown

Ace Hardware store (or whoever owns the property) needs to remove any litter and other debris from its grounds and to mow the "grassy" strips on the periphery of the parking lot. There are chunks of broken asphalt and tall weeds which further detract from the surroundings.

The Pameacha branch of Liberty Bank, which is in the same plaza, keeps its surroundings trim and attractive with colorful planters and shrubs and grass that is mowed. I can't see how a store which sells gardening and home improvement supplies can excuse such a shoddy appearance. which detracts from the neigborhood.

  I agree! I love the convenience of Ace Hardware, but wish they would spruce things up--even a planter with mums would be an improvement. Also, it can be hard to see oncoming cars with the trailers/U-Haul's parked on the side of the parking lot by the street.
  Liberty does such a good job of making their property look nice. Ace should do the same.

  Some improvement is apparent. Trash is picked up and the grassy strips have been mowed. I hope this effort is maintained.

  Wow, why so angry? Why bother responding if you don't have a solution? Is there anyone who has something positive to contribute rather than just posting to put someone else down? It's a very poor reflection of yourself T-chulo.

STOP sign, Old Mill and Walnut Grove Archived

80 Old Mill Rd Middletown, CT 06457, USA - Middletown

In winter this is fine, but when leaves are out - can the city trim the tree that obscures the stop sign? The house on the corner is vacant (I think). People sail through the intersection that is west entrance to the park. Visibility is not an issue in winter (no leaves on the tree).

  I also have been almost broadsided as I left the park, even though stopping and waiting. While walking and crossing, the intersection is not fun, as there is no way to tell if people will even slow down. The park is a major feature for the area and a neighborhood - lots of walkers, families, kids on bikes etc.

  I AGREE WITH THIS . I ALSO THINK THAT THE SHRUBS ON THE CORNER OF OLD MILL AND PHEADON PKWY NEED TO BE TRIMMED COMING OUT OF PHEADON PKY I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT A FEW TIMES.IT IS CRAZY THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN BROUGHT UP BEFORE. I DONT THINK THAT THE CITY IS RESPONSABLE FOR THIS BUT I DO THINK THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE SHOULD DO THIS. ASAP. DEFINATE HAZZARD!!!

  The leaves are off the tree now, visibility is better for winter. People will stop since they see a car exiting the park. Otherwise, most roll through the sign.

Disable Aetna Traffic Light Archived

Bradley St Middletown, CT 06457, USA - Middletown

Aetna has left and there is no traffic. This light should be made to blink yellow and red until a new tennant moves in.

  This light should not be changed. Although Aetna is no longer there, a lot of vehicles use the road as a cut through. The light does not turn red unless the sensor is tripped from Aetna or Bradley Street.

  The reason it has not been placed on flash is due to potential liability for the City. If a right-of-way crash happens that could have been averted by a functioning light, the City may have some liability for putting it on flash. The other end of Aetna was put on flash because it intersects with a private driveway, so that wasn't an issue.

Clean the Streets & Public Sidewalks Archived

W Lake Dr Middletown, CT - Middletown

It's time to clean up the streets! There's mounds of sand, sediment and broken glass piled along the sides of the roads and sidewalks. It's very slippery to walk on and it's dangerous for dogs who can cut their paws on the glass and metal shrapnel.

Steet light out Archived

Street light is out as you make as you make a right from Main onto Ridge Rd.

  Here's the website where you can report any street lights that are out. Of course if the light is on private property, then the land owner is responsible for fixing it. Like an apartment building parking lot and such. But if it's on the street then this link will help. Just make sure you know the exact location, and if there's a number on the pole, that will help too.

Street light on 24/7 Archived

44-52 Morning Glor Dr Middletown Ct - Middletown

Street light on 24/7 due to over grown trees. it's a light sensitive unit so with the trees overgrown it covers the light and keeps it on.

  Street light is STILL on 24/7, I guess we'll have to wait until the end of fall until the leaves die off before this street light will finally shut off during the day. What a waste of electricity that we all are paying for. Shame on the Town Of Middletown for NOT taking care of this situation. Even after many calls to the Public works dept. and reports on this site......
