Hello,
A dirty part of the city that really, desperately needs cleaning is "snake road" right off of Adams ave. by Tookany Creek. People dump their trash there on a regular basis, the train tracks that ride above and along side the road people use as a place to dump their trash. The city really needs to clean this section up.

Great blog! I wanted to point out the poor job Penndot does in cleaning up the trash along 76 East and West. I have noticed the same trash sits on the side of 76 for months on end. Also, I called to complain to Pendot of Montgomery County and spoke with the supervisor and can't recall his name. Anyway, he stated "the trash is Pendot's concern, it’s removing items such as furniture and matresses on 76." Unless an IKEA tractor trailer overturns on 76, it looks like Pendot is going to have a carefree summer. PICK UP THE TRASH ON 76 PENDOT!!! DO SOMETHING!!!
