10 Panels need to be replaced - will be added to our list

What is going on with this ? It is a hazard walking down School St.

Spoke to Engineer - with our current backlog of sidewalk issues - this may not happen until next summer.

I would think the city might want to fix some
thing that is a safety issue not an aesthetic one. It looks like the tree roots from the green belt might be the cause

We appreciate your interest in the safety of our residents, it is also a concern of ours. Unfortunately there are several instances of this type of safety concern around the City. We are working to address these but our limited funding in our sidewalk program has resulted in a backlog of work. We are still attempting to address safety concerns such as this one that were submitted back in late 2013 and early 2014.

As for the source of the trouble, you are correct the street trees that we all enjoy are problematic for our sidewalk network. We do value the trees and the benefits they add to our environment and City so we strive to accommodate both the trees and the sidewalks.

Will this problem be addressed this year? These sidewalk panels have been like this for quite some time
Thank you

I received no answer, will this be resolved this year?

Please publish and post a link to the "list" which was referenced back on 18 December 2014. Thanks!

Per Technical Services: sidewalk has been replaced - issue closed.

Thanks for fixing this issue!
