For the entire portion of Sycamore Street there is only one crosswalk in Watertown on it and that is at the very end where it meets Belmont Street. This is an area with a lot of foot traffic due to the Commuter Rail and buses in Waverly Square. We also have an issue with cars speeding down this street. I think we are long overdue for a crosswalk on Sycamore Street. The ideal spot would be at the half way point between the end of Sycamore Street at Lexington Street in Belmont and where Sycamore ends at Belmont Street in Watertown.

This has never been addressed so I would like to keep it open.
More crosswalks are needed for safety purposes and this really seems like a very easy request that benefits so many.

I posted this issue/concern over 360 days ago and nothing has come of it. I really wish our DPW and police would take a small amount of time to look at this concern and consider it. Sycamore Street is just around the corner from a busy commuter rail and a bus line going into Harvard Square and other busy areas. There are lots and lots of pedestrians that walk in this area to and from Waverly Square to use these public transportation options. It makes sense that the roads surrounding the area are equipped for all this foot traffic and having crosswalks is a simple request. My request is for a crosswalk to be added somewhere at the middle of Sycamore Street and to paint and brighten up the one at the end near Belmont Street.
It is not a complicated request and is much needed.
