Streets & Sidewalks

The maintenance of the historic brick sidewalks, streets and gas lamps is the responsibility of the Department of Public Works, but getting it done requires vigilance and effort on the part of all concerned residents.

Residents have several ways to request repairs or to alert Public Works to a problem:
  • Online: www.cityofboston.gov/publicworks/contact.asp
  • iPhone / Android BOS:311 application
  • via telephone to 311 or directly to the Department of Public Works: 617-635-4900

Residents can also report graffiti through these channels. 

To report a clogged catch basin, call the Water & Sewer Commission: 617-989-7000
