Abandoned Bicycle at 24 Clark St

Bikes have not moved in over 6 months. Handle bars are hanging over curb so cars cannot park and taking up space on the sidewalk. Please remove.”

Traffic Signal at Intersection Of New Rutherford Ave & Rutherford Ave, Charlestown
This 311 user says, “Please do something to solve the grid lock at this intersection. Drivers heading into the North End always block this intersection making it impossible for drivers coming off the Tobin to cross into Charlestown. You have to take your life into your hands and drive across on the red light otherwise you sit there for endless light cycles. Thank you.”
