Months ago, there were some new electric poles installed on our street and when they removed the old pole, they never filled in the hole. It’s now a safety issue for people walking by.

This hole in the sidewalk is direct access to our building for rats. IS was onsite today to treat but unless the City fixes the sidewalk the rats will continue to enter. I do not want to see this closed with the comment that this is private property. It is not. The curb is damaged which caused the bricks to fail. The coal chute is entirely intact. While trying to investigate lost footing on one of the bricks and sprained my ankle. This is a known issue for the city for more than 4 years. I have escalated to the Mayors office and Asst Comm of Env Services - John Ulrich. This group has been highly responsive! I fully expect the bricks to be fixed in the next few weeks. Alternatively, the City can manage the infestation in our building, including paying for ongoing extermination and I’ll put a sign over the damaged sidewalk area stating “if injured call 617-635-4900.

Outside of 20 Guest Street in Brighton, MA there is a old street sign pole that is not totally removed and it's sticking out enough to trip someone and injury them. Can someone saw it down to the ground so it's not an issue. This is right outside Spaulding, which has elderly coming in and out daily. I don't want them to fall and seriously injure themselves!

There is damage to the pole here behind 451 Marlborough St and it is now tilting over.
CLOSED #101005976878Resolved. We are closing this request because we have sent it to the contractor to install a new base and box, which are both marked out on street. The pole is solid and is not in immediate danger of falling. We will schedule with the contractor to remove the pole when they are ready to complete their work. After that we will install a new light pole. Thank you for notifying Street Lighting of the issue.
