Notified About

  • 7910 State Road Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - Holmesburg
    There has been several accidents at this intersection due to the fact the turning lane facing north on State road to turn left onto Rhawn is totally worn off. The south bound traffic runs right into the north bound turning lane. Very bad accident the other night with faultily happened here. The entire stretch of State Road from Cottman to Rhawn needs new lines as well. It's all worn off and people are all over the road due to this.
  • 8216-8239 Frankford Avenue Philadelphia, PA - Mayfair
    I KEEP GETTING REMINDERS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. 311 CONTACTED THE PROPERTY MANAGER ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND OTHER DANGEROUS CONDITIONS REPORTED BEHIND THE PROPERTY - MANAGEMENT HAS DONE NOTHING THE TRASH IS WORSE NOW.
    The area behind the parking lot at Frankford Terrace apartments has turned into a trash dump and has made access to the garages belonging to the Homeowners on Craig Street unaccessible. The trash and broken glass makes the area unsafe to enter. The end of the parking lot used to be blocked off with a fence, the fence broke, or was removed, and it was never replaced. Vandals from the apartment building now have easy access to the back of our property. We would like to driveway behind the apartment building completely cleaned out and the fence put back up.

  • 9342-9398 Tulip St Philadelphia, PA 19114, USA - Philadelphia Planning District North Delaware
    9353 Tulip is always having parties. There are young teens that drink and smoke marijuana. Neighbors are being harassed. Houses are being broken into as well as cars. When home owner was approached she stated there is nothing she can do. Can the police patrol this area. I mean these teens are also drinking and driving. Someone is going to get hurt.
  • 3400 Fuller Street Philadelphia , PA 19136 - Mayfair
    Boat and trailer parked on street making it difficult to pass without hitting mirror of cars parked on opposite side of street. Been here for more than a month so it's not likely a temporary spot until owner finds new storage location.

    Expansion joint on State Rd bridge is missing concrete creating unsafe road conditions.
    This is on the Philadelphia side of State rd. south bound !
    Definitely will blow out your tires. Potential for deadly accident !!!!
  • Woodhaven Road Exit At Franklin Mills Blvd Philadelphia, PA - Byberry
    Traffic coming off Woodhaven rd traveling unto Franklin Milld Blvd. Vehicles have a hard time with the blending merge because of the complete lack of broken lines to mark lane travel limits. The two roads are slightly offset, and the feeder to Franklin mills Blvd has 4 lanes to accept this matter-however because of the offset, drivers in the left lane continuously end up "taking" the center lane, and I personnaly have witnes 4 accidents and numerous cases of road rage as a result. The people traveling in the right two lanes get pushed out of the way, or completely taken opff their routed onto Byberry Rd or worse, end up in the parking lot of the Dynasty Buffet. Another reason for the "rush" at this exit is because the EXIT to the property @ Raymour and Flannigan is immediately on the left and people continuously use this one lane (up hill) road to try and sneak into Walmart and avoid the light.
