The resident's idea, as submitted
The idea
Requesting that sidewalks in the North End of Boston, including Richmond, Salem, Fleet, Hull, and Prince Streets, be widened, either continuously or with passing spaces every 200 feet, in conformity with ADA guidelines.
Who it helps and why
It will improve pedestrian safety and encourage foot traffic rather than cars through the area. People with mobility challenges are getting injured daily by being forced to walk around obstacles, lines, and snow banks on the narrow sidewalks.
