Reporting Broken Sidewalks to 311

Crews from Roads have been out in communities to complete minor repairs on sidewalks such as grout, caulking, and grinding where defects have been identified. Foremen are currently conducting their yearly inspections of concrete surveys and will schedule replacement in future seasons as required.

Please submit requests to 311 if you know of any sidewalks in need of repair. By reporting these on the 311 app, a geolocation marker will be provided to crews, which will help them easily locate and fix the issue.
