Description
This is a follow up for a case that was closed 6 months ago. The case number is #101005969192. The case was closed stating that the "NO STOPPING" sign would be moved back as requested for safety. The sign has not been moved in 6 months since the case was closed. Please move it, it is critical it is moved soon now that school has started and children are walking in the area. Here is the original request: "No Stopping" sign is too close to the intersection. Boston traffic laws state that cars cannot park within 20 feet of an intersection. Please move this sign so that it is 20 feet from the intersection. It currently is dangerous for pedestrians, especially because the intersection is slanted. In addition, there are frequently traffic bottlenecks here because the road allows for two way traffic but there is only room for one car. If a car is stopped at the bottom of Academy Hill Rd, there is no space for a car to enter Academy Hill Rd from Chestnut Hill Ave. If the No Stopping sign is moved to the correct distance from the intersection (at least 20 feet), there would be room for a car to turn on to Academy Hill Rd from Chestnut Hill Ave even if there is already a car at the stop sign.
