Cars on the sidewalk on Wildwood

Posted in: Braintree
My kids used to walk to school

on Liberty Park and Wildwood Ave and they were parked literally on the side walk then which was in the 1980s. I would walk part way with the kids and come home and call the police to come and ticket the cars.

It is illegal to park a car ON the sidewalk and that was where the cars were every morning. We had to go out into the street to get by the cars because they were parked so close to the hedges or fences.

Keep calling 843-1212 everyday that they are there. They will eventually get sick of the parking tickets if our police are still ticketing them.

Neighbors, if you see the cars on the side walk, call the police.

Same on lower Tremont St

I have the same problem on Tremont St. They park on the sidewalks day in and day out so you have to walk out into the street, not to mention they are degrading the sidewalks. Can't the town enact a system where, on narrow roads, park on one side of the street half the week and park on the other side the other half of the week?
howdy neighbor welcome to town
