    Intersection Of Old Colony Ave And D St, South Boston, Ma

    No police officer at construction site at the intersection of D and Old Colony Ave. Traffic on Old Colony is diverted to drive on the wrong side of the road so they cannot see the red line when the walk sign is on to cross. This is extremely dangerous. And the construction vehicles are blocking the crosswalk on both sides of the street so there isn’t event a safe place to cross since oncoming cars can’t see you. | Case (SR) Type: [BPD: Traffic/Parking] Referred To: [POLICE: AREA C-6]

    Intersection Of W Broadway And A St, South Boston, Ma

    August 26 ~4:10pm at A street and W Broadway intersection. I commute on foot through this intersection and cars often ignore the pedestrian walk signals and drive into foot traffic, some at dangerously high speeds to beat a yellow light or make a right on red. The problem is especially bad at rush hour (4pm-6pm) when A st traffic onto Dorchester Ave is backed up and motorists block the Broadway x A st intersection. Light cycle after light cycle, this results in a line of cars in the middle of the intersection proceeding to cross despite having a red light and the ped xing being on. Some cars pause for peds and others absolutely floor it while people are in the middle of the cross walk which is terrifying. At 4:10pm today, this exact event occurred (as it does daily). Big SUV stranded in the middle of the intersection just flooring it through the red light and multiple people mid crosswalk with no hesitation. No exaggeration, I get nervous to do this crossing on my commute to and from work. I have personally had close calls while simply obeying the ped crossing. Can anything please be done here? "Do not block intersection" boxes? Better signage near the traffic lights? | Case (SR) Type: [BPD: Traffic/Parking] Referred To: [POLICE: AREA C-6]

  • Illegal Parking

    981 A 981 Tremont St, Mission Hill, Ma, 02120

    A company called University Mail Services is monopolizing parking on Benton St, off of Tremont/Columbus. They are a contractor for Northeastern University. Their red and white commercial vans park there and in the morning the employees block the road, move a van out, and put their personal car in the spot. They will do this with 5 or 6 cars. This has been happening for years. I'm told the vans have a parking lot up the street at the Renaissance building but they would rather take up all the spots on Benton St for themselves. They typically leave 4 to 5 feet between the vans, so that nobody can fit a car in there, and they take up more of the street for themselves. This is the epitomy of selfish and it deprives locals of a fair and equitable opportunity to park in the area, not to mention quite annoying. This can't be legal can it? Help!! You can see the line of vans up the street in the photo, and the door on the left in the other pic is the mail company's mailroom.

    Intersection Of Summer St And Winter St And Washington St, Boston, Ma

    No signs or other indicators ANYWHERE near the orange line oak grove station at DT crossing that the Red Line is running shuttle buses and that you can’t get off at DT crossing and transition to the alewife red line… there really needs to be better signage if you are completely closing a station. | Case (SR) Type: [MBTA] Referred To: [MBTA]

    1 Transportation Way, East Boston, Ma, 02128

    I went to Airport Station to take the SL3 to downtown, only to find the station closed. I was aware of Blue line closing but there were no sign the station would be closed. As the station was closed, I couldn't add money to my Charlie Card. I addressed my concern to the MBTA Ambassadors (red shirts) and they told me "all the bus drivers are aware of the blue line closure and the bus fares should be free". Turns out it was incorrect. SL3 bus driver gave me a hard time (my Charlie card didn't have enough fund) before letting me on the bus, it was a humiliating experience as I ALWAYS pay for the bus/train. Please let both the MBTA and the mayor's office know of this. Eastie is suffering from the 10 day Blue line closure, which could have been better with appropriate planning, including communication. | Case (SR) Type: [MBTA] Referred To: [MBTA]
