I watched from 11:30am until 1pm & no traffic agents!
Atlantic Yards / Arena construction workers' continue to hamper the community's efforts to control rats by having the street sweeper clean the streets of the food, trash and everything else the construction workers discard in the community after the arrive & sit in their cars in the morning, breaks, @ lunch & when they leave in the evening.

For the last several days various commercial for hire buses using Carlton & Pacific, not a truck route, appears like their testing routes.

Why insn't the LIRR Vanderbilt yards massive uncovered dirt piles since early June 2012 be removed, watered or covered?

Traffic light with attached street light removed after damage from arena construction vehicle & now there is no pedestrian walk indicator making for an unsafe condition.
 
previous report

Arena construction truck damages traffic signal/light pole @ NE corner of 6th Ave & Pacific St; construction workers put yellow tape around area & closed off sidewalk but doesn’t have a flagger to help children/pedestrians maneuver around the dangerous situation; pedestrians had to walk into the street into traffic. Officers from the 78th helped the residents by communicating with the unresponsive arena personnel to make the area safer.

BOTH sides of 6th Ave sidewalks between Pacific St & Dean St are now blocked with NO PRIOR notice to the community that the east side was also blocked. What appears to be the job site supervisor or foreman is more interested in taking pictures of photographer than flagging, minding or assisting mothers with children, the elderly & other pedestrian’s safely thru an active construction excavating area.

Hazardous placement of light pole on Vanderbilt Ave stored on sidewalk within feet of pedestrians walking; pedestrians at night may not be able to notice the downed light pole & wooden palette because there is not enough light.
