- 🚨 URGENT SECOND NOTICE: SEVERE HAZARDS 🚨ATTN: Boston Transportation Department (BTD) Sign & Lighting Divisions.Your department has completely ignored our previous filing. This ongoing administrative silence forces pedestrians and motorists to navigate a highly perilous environment at Dudley Street & Virginia Street.We demand an immediate bypass of routine queues for this emergency work order:Razor-Sharp Pedestrian Hazard: A missing street lamp has left behind a broken pole base with incredibly sharp, jagged metal edges directly in the sidewalk right-of-way. This weaponized metal poses the absolute maximum physical threat to children, elderly residents, and visually impaired neighbors. It is the pinnacle of municipal negligence. Dispatch a crew to grind down and safely cap this pole today.Downed "DO NOT ENTER" Sign: The regulatory sign on Virginia Street is completely flat on the ground. Having this vital safety mechanism down creates a situation of maximum volatility. Blind turns are actively inviting catastrophic head-on collisions and vehicle-on-pedestrian violence. It is of the most paramount, absolute, and vital importance that this sign be repaired ASAP.Because this is your second official warning, the City now holds full liability for any lacerations or vehicular crashes caused by this unaddressed decay.Submitted by: Anthony Meeks, Resident & Volunteer Advocate, Uphams Corner Community.
