Hi Brian,
As a fellow user of SeeClickFix (and not a member of the Burlington govt'), I appreciate you adding these comments. However, I've received 3 notifications about issues you have with this intersection and all of those issues are within a 50 ft radius of each other.

I don't mean to cause frustration, but the Burlington Dept of Public Works and Code Enforcement. monitors this site and does an exceptional job of communicating with the public. Please, try to consolidate these compounded concerns into a single item and include additional photos. I do not want to see this system interpreted as abuse and lose the great communication with have these departments. There have been complaints and issues raised about the bridge repeatedly. I believe both Winooski and Burlington have applied for Federal grants to repair the bridge.

For what it's worth, there is presently an ongoing study and periodic public meetings on the safety of this intersection as a whole. If you would like to voice your opinion or hear how this is going, please, reach out to Richard Hillyard, Ward 1, at pompeyhccc[AT]hotmail.com or Anne Brena, Ward 8, at anne.brena[AT]gmail.com

Issue Acknowledged - Assigning to Technical Services

Brian, please continue to post each issue you see. Burlington's approach to SCF appears to be very linear. An issue is found, acknowledged, and fixed. Bundling issues together would allow for the potential for something to be missed. Thank you for reporting what you see.

It took DPW 3 days to patch small cracks (#2452353) which affected only drivers. There was no talk about "applying for grants." Larry Kupferman pointed out a problem and the DPW fixed it. These gaps in the bridge sidewalk are similar in size but they actually create a serious hazard for pedestrians and bikers. Why hasn't the safety of bridge users been addressed?

This issue was recategorized from Sidewalks to Capital improvements and long-term projects.
