Case Noted. Hello, We share your concerns about making the City’s streets safer. Everyone should have a safe street where they feel comfortable and free from concerns of speeding cars. We are working to bring speed humps to our neighborhood streets, and it will take time to get this work done. Our program is being updated to better match the needs of the community. Reaching out to your neighborhood's ONS liaison is a great way to make your feedback heard as part of this process. We will continue to work to slow traffic and offer safety interventions across the City of Boston. We appreciate you sharing your feedback on your street and will include it as we continue strengthening our program. Thank you for contacting 311 and BTD.

Case Noted. Unfortunately, BTD has discontinued the practice of posting signs for driveways. The City of Boston Traffic Rules and Regulations prohibit any driver from stopping, standing, or parking a vehicle in front of a driveway. Instead, BTD encourages residents to post their own sign that can be purchased at any hardware store. Also, according to Traffic Regulations drivers are not suppose to be parked within 2 feet of driveway opening. If any driver is violating these regulations please contact BTD Enforcement for further resolution. Thank you for contacting 311 & BTD.

Case Resolved. We hear your concerns regarding speed humps on Northampton St., and we want to clarify that the speed control infrastructure we install is built to the same regulations across all of Boston, with no humps being over 3 inches in height or three feet in width. They are spaced with the goal of providing a consistent and predictable experience for drivers. We understand that speed control infrastructure can be initially disruptive to those who are accustomed to traveling roads prior to its installation, but it is put in place with the end goal of reducing speed-related crashes and by extension traffic problems overall, and has been shown to do so in former case studies. Our speed hump program is planned with the consultation of a variety of different emergency services. We have taken into account the different needs of first responder teams, and have taken steps to minimize interference with their operations while maximizing safety for Boston drivers. We take your feedback very seriously, and we will consider it as we move forward. Sincerely, The BTD Vision Zero Team.
