Description

The pavement markings for the speed hump needs to be repainted.

The painted markings gets scraped off by snow plows every winter, making it harder for oncoming traffic to see the humps, resulting in the vehicles not slowing down and slamming down hard on the speed humps as they speed. This wakes us at night and leaves car parts on the road.

Every spring we file a report about the worn-off paint on seeclickfix. Some years, DPW promptly arrives to repaint the markings. Other years, DPW doesn’t respond until we have posted repeated times. We posted about this problem on seeclickfix a few months ago. DPW has once again done nothing. It’s frustrating and discouraging that DPW ignores citizen reports, and has no system in place to proactively maintain these important street markings, which help enhance vehicle and public safety.
