Letter: Bridge/Road repair

To the Editor:

I sympathize with the people on Holmes Road with their bridge in disrepair. Just come on out to the Peck's Road Causeway, Hancock area, and you'll see more barrels and barriers and one-lane lights in such a small area.

It's a shame that the city has let its infrastructure get that bad but mind you we've got bike paths and one-way roads and beautification on North Street. It reminds me of Atlantic City ,one block off of North Street and it turns into a city of disrepair with rising crime!

Downtown Pittsfield Parking Restrictions In Effect For Snow Removal

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — In order to effectively remove snow from the city's downtown, the City of Pittsfield will be implementing a parking restriction from 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 29, 2026, until 6:00 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 30.
 
During this time, on-street parking will be prohibited on North Street between Park Square and Wahconah Street in the southbound lane. This will allow the city to continue snow removal operations that began last evening.
 
Residents in and around downtown Pittsfield are encouraged to use the McKay Street parking garage for parking, which will be open to the public free of charge during this timeframe.
 
All other existing and signed parking regulations remain active. Non-permitted vehicles are prohibited from parking or standing in any open municipal or school parking lot between the hours of midnight and 7 a.m. Vehicles found in violation of the above parking regulations may be towed at the vehicle owner's expense.
