The road is an absolute disaster from 958 prospect heading towards Barchester. It’s has numerous potholes and the surface is totally broken.

Large potholes by circle in Westfield.

This tree is old and damaged. A massive limb fell in the recent storm and took out the power line (for going on five days now) and closed the street for two days. someone could have been badly hurt. Tree needs to come down immediately before something much worse happens. We and our neighbors and the people who pass thru here are in danger.

Litter and debris strewn across this property is a disgrace. Property owner has allowed property to fall into deplorable condition. Are there no property maintenance standards - or just no enforcement?

New asphalt poured on Madison Ave is thicker than the old asphalt and is partially blocking multiple sump pump drains on the curb. This is affecting multiple houses.

The tree in front of 216 kimball is still not removed and seems very dangerous. It caused our last power outage and we were lucky no one was hurt or worse when a massive branch feel and cut the power line. I requested on aug 16 or so that it be removed. The response was it’s on the list. We are two months on and it’s still up and still damaged and dangerous to public safety. Appreciate a heads up on when it will be removed.

Need a stop sign and crosswalk at this intersection I was hit by a car while crossing the street at this intersection

Has the timing changed on the lights at E. Broad/Elm, E.Broad/Central? It’s becoming impossible to make a left on to E.Broad from Elm heading towards Central.. The light at E.Broad/Central
turns red just when others turn green.

Leaves were never collected and are beginning to block the shoulder on central ave. Leaves were also never collected on Frazee Ct

Why is this overhead utility line running over Prospect Street near the Broad Street intersection? Westfield prides itself by having a downtown served by all underground utilities so as to avoid have these unsightly overhead utility lines in our downtown This does not occur anywhere else in the core downtown -why is it permitted only here?-

Ever since the traffic lights were enabled, there is a huge amount of traffic that accumulates during peak times in the morning and afternoon. It is insane how much people have to wait to go through that light. I’ve been living in Westfield for almost 3 years and I’ve never seen it so bad. The traffic light doesn’t help at all.
