Signal timing terrible for peds Archived345 Highland Ave Somerville, MA - Somerville
The signal timing at the Highland/Willow intersection is terrible for pedestrians. There's a dedicated pedestrian walk phase, but it is quite short, and takes a full cycle of the signal before it will activate. This makes crossing diagonally a 2+ minute process — no wonder everyone jaywalks here!
The signal should be changed so that the walk signals are on when the corresponding green is on. There's no reason to have a dedicated ped phase here.

Walk sign pointing wrong direction Archived381 Summer St Somerville, MA 02144, USA - Somerville
The walk sign at this corner is pointing the wrong direction. It looks likely that some truck struck it.
You can't really see the walk signal from the crosswalk

Extremely dangerous open hole Archived292-298 Columbia St Cambridge, MA 02141, USA - Wellington-Harrington
There is an EXTREMELY dangerous open hole in the street, which looks like a road repair which was simply left unpaved. It is definitely enough to cause an accident, and must be fixed ASAP!
It is about 5' x 3', and maybe 6' deep in places. It is filled with gravel, which is spilling out into the street by passing cars.

Right side of street disintegrating Archived15 Webster Ave Somerville, MA - Somerville
Somerville DPW ticket #212963
The whole first block of Webster out of Union Square is terribly potholed. It seems like the entire right side of the street is just a disintegrating mess of old patch jobs. In some places, the potholes are so deep that you can see the cobblestones underneath. Bikes are left with the dubious choice of taking the whole travel lane during rush hour, or staying and riding over the potholes, trying not to be thrown off their bikes.

Need bike marker for activating loop Archived3 Elm St Somerville, MA 02143, USA - SomervilleThere's no bike markers for the traffic sensing loops at this intersection, so I can be stuck for minutes trying to make a left turn, waiting for something large and metallic to come along and change the signal for me.

Pothole down to the cobblestones Archived70-72 Webster Ave Somerville, MA 02143, USA - SomervilleAs I ride over this pothole, I'm filled with a sense of appreciation for those who came before us, as their hand-laid cobblestones are once again put to use. As I glance up and see the flag flying on prospect hill, where the first American flag flew, I wonder which is older, the flag, or the now-revealed roadway?
