- URGENT Tree Hazard and Traffic Safety Request for Wrentham Street. There is a large, aging tree located on Wrentham Street across from house number 90 that poses a significant public safety hazard. The tree has overgrown branches hanging directly over the street, a streetlight post, and electrical wires. In its current condition, it represents an accident waiting to happen—potentially causing power outages, property damage, or personal injury if a branch or the entire tree were to fall during a storm or high winds. I urge the City to inspect this tree and take appropriate action—whether that means trimming or complete removal—to eliminate this serious safety risk before an incident occurs. Additionally, the intersection of Florida Street and Wrentham Street urgently needs another stop sign. It is a high-traffic area where drivers frequently overlook right-of-way rules, and multiple accidents have already occurred there. The City likely has accident reports on file confirming this pattern. Installing an additional stop sign would greatly improve traffic safety and protect pedestrians, drivers, and local residents. Together, these requests aim to prevent avoidable accidents and keep our neighborhood safe. Location Details: Tree location: Across from 90 Wrentham Street, Boston Intersection concern: Florida Street and Wrentham Street Thank you for your attention to these urgent neighborhood safety matters and for your continued commitment to keeping Boston’s streets safe and well-maintained.
