constant drinking, broken glass, bottle caps Archived

Dexter Field Providence ri 02907 - West End

People drink at night here and smash the bottles all over the place. The glass never gets picked up During the day they sit by the children's playground and drink. The place is unsanitary and very dangerous. Who wants their children playing in fields of broken glass? Can something be done?

  This is still a problem. This beer can was just sitting there by a bench around 5pm tonight.

  Went for a walk this afternoon and saw three small liquor bottles strewn about in different places. Not to mention more broken glass all over the sidewalks.

  This was still a problem last year, but I've since moved out of the neighborhood. Someone else can start a new issue if it's still an issue.

  Glass is pretty cleaned up. Fixture still missing shield, but I imagine that's someone else's problem.

Tracks on Allens Avenue Open

471 Allens Ave Providence, RI 02905, USA - Lower South Providence

The rail tracks on Allens Avenue are a danger to cyclists traveling in the bike lanes, especially when wet. Most of the tracks are positioned at a steep angle to the lanes, such that a thin bicycle tire will suddenly catch and slide along the track, causing the rider to fall. I understand that the rails were retained for historic character; however, the danger to cyclists is greater. Please remove the rails that are positioned poorly in the bike lanes.

Thanks,
John Mangili

The good people of west providence are slowly but surely turning this part of providence into something they can be proud of yet this auto business seems to think they can operate freely with zero consequences a run down eye sore that makes all of broadway look like a slum.

  I apologize to be responding not about this particular issue, but to invite you to a 'SeeClickFix Storm' happening throughout Rhode Island THIS weekend. The effort is being organized by the Chafee for Governor campaign, and in the spirit of full disclosure, I'm a volunteer. But it would be pretty amazing if we could use this as an opportunity to get many more issues (and people!) on SeeClickFix. Feel free to delete this plug if it's too shameless. But better, please come and spread the word, from the website: http://www.chafeeforgovernor.com/2010/10/join_us_for_our.php or the Facebook event: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=154379854600574.

  Dumpster continues to be monitored by Environmental Services. No violations have been identified over the last 2 months. Baiting of the perimeter (residential area) has been underway; the rat population is beginning to dwindle.
