STREET COMMISSIONER


Traffic Control


The United States Department of Commerce reports for the fifty-three weeks period ending Jan. 2, 1926 that Somerville has had fewer fatalities than any other city of comparable size in the country except Norfolk, Va. The Highway De- partment maintains all the traffic signs, lanterns, lines and lights. The Police Department lights the lanterns at night. Several safety zones have been established. Traffic and dan- ger lines were painted on the streets. "Be Careful" signs were erected for the Somerville Safety Council. Line signs were erected at the bordering City and Town lines.


Adequate space for highway traffic and effective regu- lations of its use by vehicles and pedestrians are among the most pressing present day municipal needs.


The impossiblity of providing a traffic officer at every street corner has resulted in a rapidly increasing need for traffic signs, signals or lines of some kind. To relieve some of the dangerous situations there has been a gradual introduc- tion of one way streets.


Permits


There were during 1925 :-


157 permits issued to the Cambridge and Charlestown Gas Com- panies.


100 permits issued to cross sidewalks.


584 permits issued to occupy streets and sidewalks.


27 permits issued to feed horses.


6 street sprinkling complaints and requests.


153 notifications to other departments and corporations. 57 accident reports.


1008 police reports.


849 brick and granolithic sidewalks repaired.


1404 miscellaneous reports and requests.


191 drain layers permits.


821 water department openings.


198 permits to open streets and sidewalks.


96 danger and traffic signs erected.


37 new signs erected.


198 signs repainted.


87 streets cleaned by request.


4678 cubic yards of sand and gravel used.


5778 cubic yards of dirt removed.


937 cubic yards of ashes used.


917 cubic yards of old macadam used.


5620 bags of Portland cement used.


6 cubic yards of loam used.

ANNUAL REPORTS


Recommendations


I most respectfully recommend the repaving of Somer- ville avenue from Union square to Medford street and the granite blocks that would be left from this reconstruction work could be used to complete the northerly side of Beacon street from Buckingham street to Park street. That a new bituminous mixed top be laid on Broadway from Teele square to Arlington line and on Broadway south side from Edmands street to Boston line. On Prospect street from Webster ave- nue to Cambridge line the tar top should be stripped off the concrete base and recut granite paving blocks should be laid on the old base, grouted with Portland Cement.


Portions of the brick paving in Davis square should be relaid. using granite cut blocks grouted.


This department should have a fire proof garage.


As Mayor Webster, whom I have served under for four years is to retire at the end of this year, I desire to express my appreciation for the co-operation and interest he has taken in this department.


I wish to extend my sincere thanks to all for their sup- port and co-operation.


Respectfully submitted,


ASA B. PRICHARD,


Street Commissioner.

ELECTRIC LINES AND LIGHTS


REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF ELECTRIC LINES AND LIGHTS


Somerville, Mass.


February 1, 1926.


To the Honorable, the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen of the City of Somerville.


Gentlemen :-


I most respectfully submit my seventeeth annual report as Commissioner of Electric Lines and Lights for the year ending December 31, 1925.


Inspection of Wiring in Buildings.


Electrical installations have increased in number over last year and constant supervision must be maintained to see that the work is safe and up to standard requirements.


Considerable defective work has been found most of which has been done by amateurs and unlicensed men who pose as electricians and such work is a menace to the whole district.


The improper use of appliances, some of which have never been approved, have resulted in numerous fires.


These appliances are found attached to lighting sockets on fixtures generally causing the protective fuses to blow out, and these are often replaced by improper ones introducing a fire hazard.


Flat irons, washing machines, cooking and heating ap- liances require a separate circuit for each.


Inspections are followed up as closely as possible and wiring as a whole shows some improvement.


No work should be accepted or paid for until inspected and approved.


One assistant inspector was appointed last year but an- other is needed to make periodical re-inspections of old work.

2,400 feet of underground cable was installed.

The police Signal System is now about 13 years old and some of the apparatus will have to be replacel constant re- pairs being necessary to keep it working.

Street Lighting


A number of new lights have been added and some have been changed. The lights on Medford Street from Gilman Square to Magoun Square have been changed from 600 C. P. to 1000 C. P. and mounted on underground posts and the en- tire street has been cleared of overhead wires.


The new "White Way" on Broadway, Winter Hill is a great improvement in the lighting of that district.


The number of street lights January 1, 1926 are as fol- lows :-


214- Magnetite lights. 22- 1000 C. P., lights. 378- 600 C. P. lights.


133- 125 C. P. lights. 991- 60 C. P. lights.


Recommendation


I respectfully recommend that another assistant inspec- tor be employed to enable the department to more thoroughly cover all new and old installations of electrical wiring in the City. This is imperative as with the increase of new elect- rical inspections required in the City, old work cannot be pro- perly checked up.


Conclusion


I wish to thank His Honor, the Mayor, the members of the Board of Aldermen and the several departments for the many courtesies received.


Respectfully yours, WALTER I. FULLER, Commissioner of Electric Lines and Lights.
