Still racing, mostly after 5:P.M. and into the over-night. It's always been this way, with times that it's worse than others. With school out, it should really be a joy around here. More police radar or those speed indicators . which we had a few years ago, might help or, at least, show the police department how bad it can be on Mower St.. I consider this issue still open. Concerned Pam

This issue is still OPEN. There seems to have been only one police radar detail on the street since I first commented on this situation and since that time, a bridge railing was taken out from an out of control speeding car and, just this week, a car and WRTA bus collision on Mower St. and Olean Sts., and a truck and car collision on Mower St. near Cataract St.. Vehicles are soaring up and down this street at all hours of the day and night. I plan to keep this issue open until some measures are put into place to slow drivers down. This is a thickly residential area that seems to be a fun raceway to those either trying to beat the traffic lights at Tatnuck Square or just to race up or down the street for kicks. There have been way too many accidents on this stretch of Mower St. and it keeps getting worse. Concerned Pam

This issue will probably NEVER be closed because there is no police patrols here. If there are any radar, they are usually here for about an hour, once every six to forever months. In otherwords, the city doesn't care about issues like this. Only about the downtown facelift which will still bring NOTHING to it. This is a residential area, with a mix of young and old, children and pets, walkers and joggers and the occasional skateboarders. With those who feel the need for speed on this street, it's just a tragedy waiting to happen. I truly hope I'm wrong on this. Concerned Pam

Yes, the speeding is an every day and night thing. There is NEVER any police presence here; no patrols or radar and speed indicators set up. How does anyone think this will be corrected if nothing is done to correct it ??? This city is made up of too many degrees and no common sense bureacrats whose only job is to look good on their resumes and forget this city is in dire need of reform; whether it is speeding cars, gangs, robberies, any crime, etc., things need to be done to get them fixed !!! This issue is OPEN, probably forever !!! Concerned Pam

As I was walking my dogs this morning, September 27th, I was thrilled to see the Worcester Police Department installing one of those speed indicators on Lower Mower Street. At least I know that the department is aware of the problem. This issue is not closed by, at least, something is being done about it. Thank you all very much. Concerned Pam

Oh well, just one day after the Worcester Police Department placed the speed indicator on Lower Mower St., we had a car slam into a parked car. Drivers seem to really have a hard time keeping within the speed limit and staying away parked cars or other property on this street. Just another wonderful day/night on Lower Mower St. Concerned Pam

Really ????? See what I wrote in the last blog, which was September 28th, you know, car slams into a parked car, and tell me if this issue has been fixed.....This has become a very active street over the years, with speeders, with crashes, breaking the rules of the road....And you asked if this issue has been resolved ????!!!! It's just one of those streets that needs to be patrolledall the time, which, of course, I know can not or will not happen. This issue will probably be forever open...Concerned Pam

I was walking my dog last night and I was watching the speed indicator which is still on Mower St. . The minimum speed was 41 miles per hour; the speeds went up from there, with only the residents of the area going 30 miles per hour or less. I guess you can say that this situation is still alive and speeding. This issue is still open and will remain open as long as there is speeding on Lower Mower Street. Concerned Pam

This issue will remain open, probably forever, as long as there are those who race up and down Mower Street. And guess what.......it's Friday night and you know what happens here on Mower St.. Concerned Pam

Just to let you know, as the Charter Communications repair man was re-installing our cable line that was damaged during the Halloween snow storm, a driver came racing up Mower St., as the poor guy was trying to hook the new cable to the pole. The driver paid absolutely no attention to the cones in the street or flashing lights on the repair truck, or my husband trying to have him slow down a bit. The driver just hollered a whole boat load of swears at the cable guy and my husband. Mower Street is the drivers own private raceway. Nothing changes........Concerned Pam

Still the same.....Still flying up and down the street.Maybe we'll get some snow soon so people will have to drive slowly. Concerned Pam

Hey everyone !!! School vacation week started February 17th and you should have been around here on that Friday night....Let the racing begin !!!! NO, nothing has changed on Mower Street. With this great weather, it should be a fun week, especially at night. Believe me, when the really bad crash happens on Mower Street, due to speeding, I'll be the first to let everyone know just how long I have been complaining about this. Till then, nothing has changed and the racers are still flying up and down Mower. Concerned Pam

This is a problem area where speeding is king. Whether it's morning, noon or night, there are always those who fly up or down Mower Street. Why, I have no idea because it's not the best street in regards to curves and many streets that come off of it. Or maybe it's the thrill of the danger because of the area. Regardless, this issue will be forever open. Nothing changes how it is. No amount of very limited police presence curbs the speeding. Enough said. Concerned Pam

I've been writing about the speeding on Lower Mower Street for almost a year and guess what ; NOTHING HAS CHANGED !!!!! This will be a "forever" open issue. I pray every time I hear or see a car go flying up or down this street, hoping all will end well for these foolish drivers. But the good luck might run out some day and something awful will happen. I guess there's not much that can be done here. Concerned Pam

Nothing has changed; same thing, different day. Concerned Pam

As of June 12, 2012, the speeding on Lower Mower Street is alive and well. Now it seems to start around 5:30 A.M. with those in a rush to get to work and continues 24/7. What will it take to finally get people to slow down when driving on this street ? Concerned Pam

On June 14th, the Worcester Police Department brought a speed indicator onto Mower St. Hope this will supply the needed information as to how fast so many drivers go up and down this street. Thanks to all involved with this. Concerned Pam

Nothing has changed; still a speedway, especially late at night. This issue will remain open, probably FOREVER !!!! Concerned Pam

At around 11:00 P.M. on Friday, September 28th, what sounded like a rocket ready to launch started at the bottom of Mower Street took off ; I couldn't even tell you what type of car it was, it travelled so fast...Putting a police officer to watch traffic at 10:00 A.M. for about 30 minutes will do nothing to help with this problem. It is one of those streets where drivers love to speed on, especially at night. Nothing has changed at all. Concerned Pam

As I respond for the 38th time, SAME PROBLEM; DIFFERENT DAY; NOTHING HAS CHANGED !!!!! Concerned Pam

Hi Pam,

As previously mentioned, moving violations are under the enforcement of the Worcester Police Department. In order to properly report this issue, it must be brought to their attention. WPD does not monitor SeeClickFix and must be contacted directly. Their non emergency number is 508-799-8606.

I'm concerned about Pam, clearly she can't read.

As of October 27th, I will be closing this issue. The problem of speeding still remains. I know that we cannot have police sitting on the side streets all hours of the day and night. I just want drivers to be aware of this problem here. I only hope that there will never be a terrible accident that takes innocent lives because of some drivers' need for speed. Concerned Pam
