BOS:311

7 Doris Street in Dorchester (next to Walgreens) is having some work done on their home with a permit etc to have the dumpster parked in the interim. The parking restrictions were once in place on the street, yet someone has moved the orange cones with signage, people have decided to park wherever they’d like, and the road would now be considered blocked for any emergency vehicles, fire trucks, etc. Given common sense isn’t so common, the orange cones with the updated parking restrictions need to be put back in their proper place and monitored by the City of Boston, unfortunately, as people keep moving them which presents a safety concern for the people living here (Doris St. is NOT a service road for Walgreens, although sometimes identified through this portal as that with entries promptly dismissed….Doris Street an actual street with multiple homes and people living here). Thank you for your prompt response.

Good afternoon, Boston 311 and hope you're all having a good Sunday. Earlier today (approx. 12:30 PM), I cleaned up an abandoned encampment (very small) on Dorchester Avenue (adjacent to the Federal Reserve building) between Congress and Summer streets. All debris and litter has been placed in trash bags and a 5-gallon pail. Unfortunately, I did not have a means of transport and/or a place to dispose of properly. Hoping that Boston PWD can drop by and collect this during the day on Monday (the 8th). Thanks in advance.
