ANNUAL REPORTS
REPORT OF THE STREET COMMISSIONER
Office of the Street Commissioner, City Hall, Somerville, Massachusetts,
January 1, 1942.
To His Honor, the Mayor, and the Board of Aldermen : Gentlemen :
I respectfully submit the sixty-sixth annual report con- taining a brief summary of the work performed by the High- way Department, during the year 1941, with recommendations for necessary additions the coming year.
This department has charge of the construction, alterations, repair, maintenance and management of ways, streets, side- walks and bridges ; the setting out and care of shade trees ; the suppression of gypsy and brown tail moths, elm leaf beetles and other pests injurious to trees; the cleaning and watering of the streets.

SNOW AND ICE
All streets were plowed and opened for traffic, snow was removed from the principal business centers, also around all public buildings and grounds. Special requests for funerals, weddings and other occasions were given prompt attention. Owing to so few dumping places for the disposal of snow, it is necessary to make long hauls from some parts of the city. This
337
STREET COMMISSIONER
delays the work unless a large force of extra men and trucks are employed. I recommend that better facilities for dumping be provided to save this extra expense.
Warning signs were posted on streets where coasting was allowed and ashes spread at the foot of hills for the protec- tion of the public. Icy and slippery streets and sidewalks were made safe as soon as possible.
HIGHWAYS AND SIDEWALKS MAINTENANCE
Police and public reports pertaining to all kinds of defects in the streets and sidewalks were given prompt attention. Gen- eral repairs were made on streets, brick and granolithic side- walks. Edgestones were reset and gutters relaid.
The dirt sidewalks were graded and filled.
$131,807.64 was expended on Highways and Sidewalks Maintenance.
STREET CLEANING
All streets are thoroughly cleaned during the year. The public squares and business sections receive daily attention. Special requests and reports of dirty streets are given prompt attention.
The cleaning of streets and squares was greatly improved by the use of an automatic street sweeper. The main thorough- fares and squares received attention in the early morning hours to avoid traffic and parked cars so that the entire width of the streets could be cleaned. This sweeper was also in oper- ation through the day on side streets.
$20,103.41 was expended for Street Cleaning.
SUPPRESSION OF MOTHS-CARE OF TREES
This department cares for the trees, both public and priv- ate, regarding moths and other tree pests. Gypsy and Satin moth nests were painted with creosote. Tussock, tent and brown tail moth nests were destroyed.
338
ANNUAL REPORTS
The department should be equipped with a new motor power sprayer to do more efficient work.
The majority of the public trees in the city are in good condition. Old and unsightly trees have been removed and re- placed by new ones, others have been trimmed and pruned. New trees have been planted on request and guards and sup- ports renewed. Many poplar trees have been removed on ac- count of the roots growing into and obstructing the drainage systems.
On account of the hard paved streets and sidewalks, city trees do not thrive as on private property or parks and conse- quently need constant attention.
$8,143.07 was expended for Suppression of Moths - Care of Trees.
MISCELLANEOUS
Permits are issued to the various corporations and con- tractors, by this department, to open streets and sidewalks. Said openings to be restored to original conditions at the ex- pense of the petitioners. To cross sidewalks and occupy streets for building purposes permits were issued on specified conditions. Driveways for garages and filling stations were constructed after the owners petitioned for same and deposited a sufficient sum of money to cover the cost of the construction.
This department maintains its own municipal repair shop for the various lines of work. Most of the maintenance and repair work on the motor equipment of the department is done in our shop at the city stables.
TRAFFIC CONTROL
Traffic lines were painted and warning signs erected at schools, playgrounds and dangerous locations. Particular at- tention has been given to painting of cross walk lines in business centers and squares. Parking and No Parking signs at designated locations and safety zones were plainly marked.
Traffic conditions have been greatly improved on streets where trackless trolleys have replaced street cars. Some of the streets affected are Elm Street, Holland Street, Somer- ville Avenue, Highland Avenue and McGrath Highway.
339
STREET COMMISSIONER
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend that as far as possible, old brick sidewalks be replaced with granolithic. That the city acquire another street sweeper especially for night work on through streets and business sections. Several trucks should be purchased to replace some very old ones now in use.
I wish to extend my sincere thanks to the members of the Board of Aldermen and the men of the department for their support and co-operation.
Respectfully submitted,
JAMES J. CORBETT, Street Commissioner
