Description
Ice on route 60’s and Pearl street’s sidewalk at McDonald Stadium of which our tax dollars pay for. Almost slipped three times and had to consider walking on the speedy road of route 60.
I sincerely hope that Malden’s leaders don’t want to have someone else’s blood on their hands either from a person walking in the street and getting hit by a car (and potentially passing away) or slipping/falling and paying for medical bills.
I don’t want to hear any excuse about how it was a holiday and there’s a skeleton crew, or it’s going to melt, or whatever the flavor of excuse it is. You all know what the budget is, make the wage attractive ($15/hour-$20/hour is not attractive).
Route 60 as it is is not safe for pedestrians, and the light doesn’t immediately go off again if someone misses the rotation on the walk signal either. Please make it so that within 10 seconds of a crossing request a pedestrian has the right to go, and not dodge 4-5 lanes of traffic. Do better, Malden.
