Description

Trailer Trucks allowed to use sidewalk as a roadway, City of Medford Admin ignoring situation, parking enforcement not effective due to low staff at MPD and Park Medford

June 1, 2016

No action by mayor or underling will eventually lead to physical harm to a resident

Stanley Transportation blocking sidewalk parked in front of 159 Harvard St, drove truck towards my dog and me as I walked on sidewalk

The 3 non english speaking dudes told me to

a: get the **** out of the way

B: Get out of our way *****

Sidewalk driving is accepted by Mayor Burke or she would implement safety measures.

Mayors turns deaf ear to complaints of dangerous public safety issue, ignores an obvious dangerous situation

Mayo’sr Staff make promises that are not fulfilled.

The 5 year battle for a safe walkway at Harvard and Main continues

“Thank you - I have looped Brian Kerins in as well and we will work to make necessary changes to ensure that pedestrian safety is improved upon.”

Lauren Feltch, City Council & Community Relations Liaison

In response to email,

“Dear Lauren and Jen,

Please ask Mayor Burke to instruct the DPW and Traffic Divisions of the MPD to install the orange and white traffic barrels or tall cones along the length of Harvard Street until something permanent or just temporary measures are implemented.

This situation has existed for years, the mayor has been in office for 5.5 months, nothing has been done to protect pedestrians and homeowners from trailer trucks and oasis related vehicles during that time”
