    Intersection Of Braintree St And Everett St, Brighton, Ma

    Image submitted with report

    At the intersection of Everett Street and Braintree Street by 129 Braintree St., under the bridge is a one-way street going westbound. For many years until construction began police with set up a trap and ticket dozens, maybe hundreds of confused people trying to get to Braintree Street. Well, there is other construction in the area. This is still a one-way street. The reason people were ticketed was because there’s no stop sign so they just come flying out an extreme hazard. Now that it is a stream of construction workers, and not regular people , the police no longer ticket them. They can go the wrong way down that one-way street over and over with their passenger vehicles and pick up trucks and they never get a ticket. They never have the points on their license and they are treated differently because they are part of that construction project. Can somebody ask the police to start ticketing again? Why should these construction workers from out of town put everyone’s life in danger and have no penalty? see this pick up truck with Massachusetts license plate number 3TN322. This is one of the dozens of vehicles that will come through beeping at people who legitimately stop at the stop sign and are going in the right direction. Please, let’s have some equal treatment

    30 Penniman Rd, Allston, Ma, 02134

    Image submitted with report

    Illegal expired permits being used to look like they have real permits. There are dozens of these being used all over the worksite on Penniman Road and on Rug Road and Denby Road. Rather than get valid permits, they tape these old permits to the fence and to movable road cones. They then placed these around so their residents cannot park legitimately. They park their construction vehicles making it look like they have a permit, but really they’re just trying to get around the fees. Can a real inspector go to this worksite and issue an individual fine for each expired permit as would be done if it were a homeowner?
