Medford

What ever these imbeciles planted all the way down the Fellsway East and West is now covering fire hydrants to the point that they can’t be found and the growth at Central Ave @ Fellsway and Medford street now blocks the view of traffic causing drivers to Gand to edge out through red lights. This is a disgrace especially with all the money the tax payers paid for the sidewalks , paving, and Lanscaping that went terribly wrong somehow! This is a serious issue and needs attention ASAP!!!!

DESCRIPTION
Fells Ave and Murray Hill Road have been destroyed for over 9 years. I have literally had to replace all four tires on my expensive SUV because of the disrepair that Medford officials have ignored for more than 10 yrs now Work was just done in Murray Hill Rd near Fellsway East and STILL the road wasn't repaved. This needs to be addressed. I just found a chunk of one of my NEW tires flapping off the wheel the other day. Both roads and all of them in the area including Rock Glen Road, Vista Ave, Fern Rd., etc ALL need to be repaved and should have been years ago. Continuing to do shoddy patches is bs. My tax dollars need to be allocated to this, not useless libraries and schools when I have (and smartly never will) have children). pleaseee

This entire home is listed as an AirBnB/Short Term Rental and is advertised as being able to house 16+ people in 7 beds. Who is sleeping 3 persons to one bed? This is a residential neighborhood and this home is not a hotel. 16+ people is a two family home is insane. Do they have a short term rental permit?

Accessing the Fellsway from Malden St has become dangerous. The hellstrip foliage has grown to a height where oncoming traffic cannot be seen without encroaching upon the right travel lane - if a car is speeding you may not see it until it hits you.

I am aware that this may be the responsibility of DCR rather than Medford, but it needs to be addressed before an accident causes injury or worse.

I was almost hit and almost hit another car. Because of construction two cars came out from the on ramp suddenly to merge in my lane and I almost hit them. The problem is that there was a warning sign in 93 north to move to the left and the lights were burned out so it wasn’t clear to me that it was supposed to be a left arrow. It was just a straight line. I think this is a very dangerous situation for drivers going north on 93 just north of the Salem street rotary. Cars entering to go north on 93 at that on ramp enter very suddenly and there is no space to merge. I reported this to the Medford police but I am not sure they understood what I was saying.

Disgusting trash in the CVS raised bed that’s supposed to be filled with flowers. It’s been like this for years and it’s an embarrassment to Medford Square. CVS have some decency and clean up the mess.

164 Surrey St has put up No Parking/Tow Zone signs along their building. They have no right to do so. I have been parking there for years. The City of Medford legal right of way is 50 feet wide from the opposite sidewalk. I have measured it and it puts its 2 inches from the building. They put a note on my car saying June 20th they will start towing. I know for a fact that they have no right to do so.

This is a short term rental airbnb. The owner lives in Billerica and is not a medford resident
