Quincy Center chainsaw victims cover-ups and traffic mess continue to annoy locals.

The Hancock Street realignment projects continues and so does the lack advance warning and only proper coordination by City Hall with impacted local businesses.

Particularly disruptive are the lose of street parking for the public and the constant changing of the positioning of traffic lanes along Hancock Street in Quincy Center.

Conversely, City Hall officials, employees and long suspected free VIP commuters continue to enjoy more than ample free and reserved parking spaces adjacent to City Hall and the Quincy Center MBTA station.

Business operators are further annoyed because they were advised that underground utility work on this project was supposed to be wrapped up at the end of last year’s construction season, but apparently was not as considerable excavation work is currently underway in front of Presidents Place as well as elsewhere along Hancock Street.

Additionally, frequently heard from the few business patrons who have managed to brave their way through the barriers and other impediments blocking traffic is what happened to the trees?

Granted, the trees have long been promised to be replaced with new ones, but their sudden as well as unannounced recent chainsawing provided a stark landscape to those still recovering from last winter’s brutal winter and just barely record setting snow pack.

One can also not help but wonder what will be next as the deservedly embattled Koch Maladministration continues to try to save its phony baloney jobs as local elections approach this coming fall.

In the meanwhile, it is only a matter of time before it might finally be determined if the roughly million dollars in federal transportation funding that was inexplicably reprogrammed to pay for an underground water cistern to supply the three proposed water “features” in the as yet projected but unfunded $30 million acre and but a half Adams Green could have instead been otherwise applied where it could actually be effectively used.

For example, to provide entirely standard as well as mitigation relief to impacted abutters during the Hancock Street realignment program and so mitigate their ongoing misery care of this project.
