DPW HWYS Shelley F assigned this issue to DPW HWYS Mayfield (east)

The amount of ice on the sidewalks all the way to the corner has built up every day in this cold snap. I saw a neighborhood teenager slip and fall on this area just yesterday on my way home. We can no longer walk our dog on the normal loop because we cant walk on this section of sidewalk. If this area does melt, it starts to flow acorss the intersection at the bottom of the street and then refreezes at night making it dangerous for vehicles stopping at the stop sign. This problem is getting worse each week.

Thank you for submitting your request to the Howard County Department of Public Works. Our staff will investigate this issue and respond.

It seems like there may be a broken water line in this area because the water is running over the sidewalk in several areas and across the common driveway for the first group of homes on the left side of the street. This is a serious issue.

Ground water has stopped due to not having extreme amounts of moisture.

Thank you for contacting the Howard County DPW Bureau of Highways. This issue is now closed in Tell HoCo. If you require more information, please contact Department of Public Works Highways office 410-313-7450.
