    There has been construction, routinely late night (10pm and later) on Peterborough St. since October 2025. I recognize that many people may complain about construction noise, but I think the process genuinely needs to be investigated. Repeatedly the street has been opened and excavated with machinery, then filled back up again, to then reopen into a large pit for months. I appreciate the city working to better the infrastructure, but I hope there is oversight to ensure maximum productivity, especially if construction is routinely happening into the late night to then start promptly at 7am again. Thank you.

    Stickers...should be sprayed over. Quick & easy, right? I'd do it but I need permission, right?

    BTD Planners: There are many signs like these all over Boston, installed back when the citywide speed limit was 30 mph. The idea was to encourage drivers to go a little slower than the limit (though these aren’t technically speed limit signs). Since the official speed limit has been 25 mph for several years now, how about printing out a bunch of stickers that say “15” (or even “20” though that’s really too fast for this and many other streets) and placing them over the now irrelevant 25s?
