To support public safety, I have had Stop signs installed at many locations in the Ward in an eff ort to stop speeding in our neighborhoods. We now have a speed bump on Campbell Avenue in the vicinity of the crosswalk. In a further effort to slow down speeders, I had the speed machine on Campbell Avenue relocated to the lower part of Campbell Avenue. I am also working on additional speed calming measures on Franklin Avenue, Centennial Avenue and on Campbell Avenue. I have had the wattage of street lights increased in many locations in Ward 2 to improve lighting for the safety of our Ward and I am working to increase additional street light locations near the Garfield School. I have also supported and voted for the funding of the Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund. I supported the construction of a new Revere High School, the senior water and sewer discount program, the expansion of homebased child care along with many more issues that aff ect the residents of Ward 2 and the City of Revere. Over 32 streets have been repaved during my tenure with several more scheduled to be completed this year. Through my negotiations with DCR and developers on Ocean Avenue, I was able to get Ocean Avenue partially repaved with further work to be done after additional infrastructure work is completed. Also on Ocean Avenue, I was able to have crosswalks protected with yellow signage to advise drivers to stop when pedestrians are crossing the roadways. Through my efforts with MDOT and Safe Routes, sideIra Novoselsky Ward 2 Councillor walks and handicap ramps have been upgraded throughout the Ward 2 neighborhood and around the Garfield School. New sidewalks were installed on parts of Garfi eld Avenue and Eliot Road and more are scheduled to be completed in the near future. In further cooperation with MDOT I was able to have North Shore Road from Revere Beach Parkway to Butler Circle repaved.
