Overflowing Trash Can at Intersection Of Thacher St & Endicott St
This 311 user writes, “This is the problem with the new trash schedule. People put their trash out the night before now because of the earlier pick up time. So homeless and others go through and tear open more trash bags which means used needles and other trash end up all over the sidewalks. This is a problem. This picture is outside 160 Endicott Street in the north end.”

Road Markings Needed on Atlantic Ave.
This 311 user writes, “Cars are driving on the wrong side of the road due to inadequate lane markings following the new paving. The west bound lane from Joe’s to the Greenway is one lane however it is not clear as the street has not yet been lined. There is serious risk of a head on crash occurring until double yellow lines are laid down.”
