  • Illegal Parking

    9 Van Winkle St, Dorchester, Ma, 02124

    Cars are parking illegally on a daily basis. The corner of Van Winkle St and Magdala St in Dorchester (02124) has a parking area for visitors on Magdala St. The sign states parking for two hours at a time is allowed. Residents and non-residents (without parking permits/stickers) are parking here all day. Some head for the red line T and return after an apparent working day. Those of us who have genuine visitors find that the visitors have no legal parking due to cars that are in the visitor spot for many hours or all day. While there seems to be occasional parking enforcement on Van Winkle St, there is no consequence for those parking illegally in the visitor parking area. Could someone please attempt to enforce the parking rules here.

    Intersection Of Theodore A Glynn Way And Topeka St And Southampton St, Roxbury, Ma

    Hello! I am a 72 year old woman who volunteers at the Greater Boston Food Bank three afternoons a week. I commute via Orange and Red lines and then walk from Andrew. For several years the sidewalk on Topeka--the only sidewalk leading to GBFB off Southampton from Andrew--has been blocked by fence to prevent further "Mass & Cass" encampment. But the camps are gone. (An occasional shoot-up, but very little action in the area.) I would LOVE not to fear for my life walking down Topeka. 18 wheelers and speeding Sheriff's cars are everywhere on this street. It is NOT safe to walk in the road--especially after dark when I leave the Food Bank. Please, please give us back the sidewalk. I'm happy to send photos if you want them. Thanks for helping! | Case (SR) Type: [Unsheltered Persons] Referred To: [UNSHELTERED PERSONS]

    Intersection Of Austin St And Interstate 93 S, Charlestown, Ma

    Traffic intersection at Rutherford Ave.and Austin Street needs new pedestrian lines. This is a very dangerous area. Despite their being two no turn on red signs the cars are too bust looking to their left to see on coming traffic to run through the red light and not paying attention to the pedestrians! I use this area as a pedestrian 6 days a week as the T station is also near- by. Also many young people also use this intersection for commuting to and from school on foot! Sally Bigelow
