Who should I contact if I see a sidewalk in need of repair?

Category: Sidewalk repair
Constituents are encouraged to call 311 (or 617-666-3311, if outside Somerville) and report sidewalks in need of repair.  An initial assessment will be completed by the Department of Public Works within three business days to address any immediate safety concerns. Sidewalk repairs cannot be worked on during winter months (typically, November-March) except to address safety concerns and temporary patches.
