The city finally surrendered and agreed to seal off the Lower Piers Road subway for good. This cesspool of crime is being shut down because we refused to accept their neglect any longer. Watch them closely to ensure the work actually begins immediately.

The city officials think they can ignore us while we deal with robberies and filth in our own neighborhood. We need to hit one hundred signatures right now to force them to look us in the eye. Stop letting them stall while our streets remain unsafe.

Too many people getting robbed in there. Its not worth the risk just for a shortcut.

It floods every single time it rains and nobody can even use it. Just brick it up already.
