Cars "rolling" stop signs along Fairfield St. Especially during morning and afternoon rush.

Light at Fowler and Amity Road does not cycle often enough or stay green long enough. When the light at Amity and Wright turns red the South bound traffic backs up into the intersection at Fowler and Amity. The light at Fowler and Amity generally turns red again before the light at Wright and Amity turns green so the Fowler intersection can clear. This is also and enforcement issue because cars will often come into the intersection on yellow light (shouldn't even enter it on a green if traffic is stopped) even though it is clear they will be blocking it.

Mattress and 7 garbage bags along walking trail.

Traffic signal is set to cycle the North Bound Traffic on Whitney Avenue at East Rock Rd. green to red at least twice (at slightly long but normal intervals) while leaving the Southbound light green and the cross street red. This only encourages high speed traffic on Whitney and makes the light pointless. You could normally cross the street several times without any cars nearby in the time it takes for the light to go green for E. Rock Rd.

Large dangerous potholes on New Road. This road is regularly traveled by cyclists. A cyclist was injured here Tuesday April 21, and had to be taken to the Emergency Room. The people living in the house at the location came out to help and said that had lost tire in the holes on the road there. This is a public safety issue.

Unfortunately this intersection was recently reconstructed to update the bus stop, but did nothing to improve walk-ability or traffic flow. If anything it made the situation worse. This is a dangerous, congested, ill conceived, unnecessarily large intersection that is unfriendly to walkers an cyclists. The median for the bus puts pedestrians in the middle of a busy sometimes congested intersection. The design of this intersection creates congestion on lawn crest. Ideally the end of Lawn Crest and the west side of the intersection would be converted to community to community Green space to reduce congestion and provide traffic calming. Traffic would then be diverted to the intersection of Ramsdell and Fairfield which is better designed. At a minimum the 50' section of Lawncrest that intersects with Fountain should be blocked off , bringing Lawncrest to a right angle stop with Ramsdell (making Ramsdell a 2-way street at Fountain).

This is a dangerous intersection. Due to how it is situated between Whalley Avenue and Fountain Street this neighborhood tend to have a large amount of fast through traffic. It is also sorely lacking in green space. The intersection of Fredrick / Greenhill Terr. / Wright Avenue should be converted community green space to aid in traffic calming and improve the walkability of the neighborhood.

Pothole deep enough to destroy a tire.

Large confusing intersection causes traffic congestion. Very large intersection, difficult for pedestrians and cyclists to cross. Very limited pedestrian access from Jct. of rt. 63 and 69 to Grocery stores and shopping. No sidewalks on East side of rt. 69, sidewalks on west side are dangerous for pedestrians. Sidewalks along rt. 63 northwest of the in 63/69 are in poor condition and end at rt. 15. Was told at a CMT meeting over 2 years ago that there were plans in the works to improve this area. Nothing has been improved.

Wide Deep Hole on Fowler at intersection with rt. 63

Wright Avenue feeds high speed traffic into the neighborhood and is aided with a seldom observed yield sign at Frederick street. This is an unnecessarily large intersection and the street has been designed to speed up traffic. We were told at a CMT meeting two years ago by the city planner that this intersection would be changed to come to right angles with Wright and Frederick, thus requiring a left and right turn to continue from Wright onto Green Hill terrace. Wright Ave. has since been repaved without making any changes This intersections dangerous in a car and even more so if walking or biking.

Wide shoulder being used to pass lines of waiting traffic on the right. Dangerous for cyclists and drivers going around traffic turning left onto Blake St. Needs barriers or better lane/shoulder marking.

Drivers on Whalley Avenuefrequently using right turn lane to pass on the right at Dayton (rt. 122) and continue strait on Whalley. There needs to be some sort of barrier on the East side of Whalley/Dayton intersection.

Unnecessarily long green for traffic on Whalley Avenue at Ramsdell and Dayton Street. Long signals aid in increasing speeds . Makes it difficult and time consuming for pedestrians to cross the street. Creates unnecessary delays for cross traffic. It is a dangerous stretch of road for pedestrians.

Lost a tire here. Is there a city program for pothole damage reimbursement?
