Description
On September 10, 2026, at approximately 8:54 a.m., a red and yellow Capitol Waste Services dumpster truck drove over/turned on this paved area in front of 37 Higgins St Allston MA 02134. The weight of the truck caused a substantial section of asphalt to buckle, crack, and lift above the surrounding surface, creating a driving and tripping hazard. Several days have now passed without a repair. Upon checking the damage again, a large pipe is visibly exposed beneath the broken asphalt. The purpose and condition of the pipe are unknown, and there appears to be an open space beneath the pavement with possible water leakage. The asphalt may be unsupported and could shift or collapse further if additional vehicles drive over it. Please have the appropriate agency or responsible stakeholder inspect the exposed pipe and damaged pavement as soon as possible. This is related to previously closed case #BCS-00316799, but this report includes the newly discovered exposed pipe and possible subsurface damage.
