Sagamore

Notified About

  • 56 Grove Street Medford, Massachusetts, 02155 - Medford
    Almost hit a kid on a bike coming out of Sagamore because the usual suspects are parking along a narrow stretch of Grove Street (50-56). The parked cars block the view
    of the crosswalk and cause cars to veer into the oncoming lane. This is an accident waiting to happen and has been reported here multiple times, stop passing the buck and take action before someone is seriously injured.
  • Oak Ridge Rd Medford, MA, 02155, USA - Medford
    I have visited the DPW twice since April of 2019 regarding missing STOP and stop line templates at each of the four existing STOP signs. Initially I was told that there was a backlog because of rainy conditions was informed by email over a year ago that my request would be "First on the list". This is a cut through between Grove Street and the Mystic Valley Parkway and without these painted templates motorists fly through as if the signs are invisible. I don't understand how such a simple request can not be acknowledged or completed within a year's timeframe.
  • 1420 Mystic Valley Pkwy Medford MA 02155, United States - Medford

    41 Grove St Medford MA 02155, United States - Medford
    We used to have cones here to direct traffic to the new stop placement but since the cones were temporary and the 2 remaining are repeatedly moved by residents we have a new issue. Traffic doesn't go to the stop but rather just flies through with stopping at all. So where we had one path onto Grove before there are now two and it's constant confusions and near miss accidents. Is there an alternative or something more "fixed" that clearly denotes the intended traffic path. Things are more dangerous now that you have traffic going in 5 different directions.
  • 5 Usher Rd Medford, MA 02155, USA - Medford
    At least a few times a year, twice in last two months, Usher road floods during storms. Sometimes it's cause by leaves clogging drains, but other times drains are clear and the system just can't handle amount of water. There's only two drains at the bottom of the hill that need to handle all the water from Usher and when other streets in the area backup it comes like a river from both directions on Playstead. I know it's not an easy fix, but is there something that can be done, or what steps can residents take to start the process of getting something done? Either additional drains further up hill that won't get clogged, or for when leaves are not the issue are there pumps down the line that could be turned on sooner if there are pumps? Cars on Street food and houses food occasionally as well. just got done clearing drains at 3am.
  • Boston Ave & High St Medford, MA, 02155, USA - Medford
    There is very little traffic regulation at the intersection of Boston Avenue and High Street, making it a very dangerous intersection. Drivers speed through the intersection from either direction, often times not yielding to pedestrians on the crosswalks. The right-hand turn from High Street to Boston avenue is particularly dangerous with how fast people take the turn.

    Traffic cones have been removed (2 remain which were pushed aside). Local resident has been vocal about not liking the new pattern.
  • 51-59 Grove St Medford, MA, 02155, USA - Medford

    Re-post of a previous concern that was obviously not read fully or understood by city staff.

    The request is not to issue one time tickets to cars parked here, it’s for the city to make the area a permanent No Parking zone.

    Cars parked on Grove St between Newton Rd and Sagamore Park are creating a hazard for drivers. The parked cars create blind spots in the drivers field of vision as they pull around the parked cars, creating a high risk of head on collisions with cars entering Grove St from Tyler Ave, Sagamore Park, Johnson Ave, or coming in the opposite direction on Grove St.

    This stretch should be designated No Parking for safety reasons

  • 2–32 Monument St Medford MA 02155, United States - Medford

    The roots of a tree (now cut down) have raised a portion of the sidewalk, making it a tripping hazard.

    It is the second tree from High St on the even side of Monument

  • 585 High St Medford MA 02155, United States - Medford
    Corner of pitcher and High Street, both addresses have not shoveled out their accessible cut in. I understand that is the owners with possibility even when they live on a quarter. Poor them. Please fine them, this is not ADA accessible.
  • 51-59 Grove St Medford, MA, 02155, USA - Medford
    Cars parked on the stretch of Grove St between Newton Rd and Sagamore Park obstruct driver and pedestrian views and are a hazard.
