I live on Old County Rd not far far from Carol. Clearly there are streets in Lincoln that are more affected than others by littering. Old County is one of them as we are close to a reservoir and major business center and the road provides a major thoroughfare with low lighting/visibility for cars. Other roads in Lincoln are similarly affected for these or different reasons and the town is probably aware of them. These roads deserve more effort by the town with more frequent street cleaning. Perhaps this is already happening but does not seem enough. Betty Green On Monday, March 21, 2022, 09:06:50 AM EDT, Richard Panetta <[email protected]> wrote: As someone a stated before. We can’t have town employees cleaning roads every time trash is dumped. They have other things to do and only clean during certain times of the year. Curious if it is on the reservoir side is that not owned or run by Cambridge or do they just lease the land/water area? On Mon, Mar 21, 2022 at 8:50 AM Carol Ryan <[email protected]> wrote:
Regardless of who is dumping this trash the fact remains it is on town owned land and should be cleaned up by a town crew.

We invested in one of these trash grabbers: I highly recommend it.

Trails will b closed if become dangerous and trashy. So upsetting folks don't have manners.

Each year, on Earth Day, one of the local citizen's groups organized trash cleanup parties all along the river. It was a shame we had to do that, but together, we all made a difference. When I moved to Lincoln, I was so pleased that I could walk our beautiful trails without constantly running across trash. I'm sorry to hear that the plague has spread to our town as well. Perhaps we need a similar sort of cleanup day. Although I would much rather spend my time doing something useful, like pulling up garlic mustard or planting native pollinators, rather than having to waste time picking up after thoughtless people.
