Private way.

Thanks for your report. This is on private property and not regulated by the City of Cambridge.

If heading East along Pemberton Street one is lead to believe, due to this sign, that Pemberton Street from that poing on is not a thru way, and that children will be playing on it. That's very incorrect and should be addressed. Possibly the sign could be rotated to face Verdun Street traffic, or, better still, be removed as it appears to be official when in reality it is a psuedo-official traffic sign. It's a blight.

I would concur with the previous comment. A sign, even on private property, should not be turned toward the street to imply that a car would not be able to enter the street. It is a private way, but it is still accessible by the public. I agree with the blight comment as well.

We've reviewed this location and believe that it is offset enough to not interfere with traffic operations on Pemberton St. As it is private property, the city has no jurisdiction over the signage posted.

Please review this article. My understanding is the sign is not exempt due to the fact that it faces the street. In addition, who may I contact to determine it is installed on private property? It is a private way, not private property. If you allow this, does that mean I can erect a sign in my yard stating anything?

Someone really doesn't like that sign.

It is one thing to post an illegal sign showing how entitled you are and that your children need to be more protected than others and that they are at play. It is quite a different thing to post an illegal sign stating no thru way which lends itself to imply that if a driver turns into the private way, the may be in danger. The sign is not enforceable, it is illegal and it is a blight. I am wondering if the same individuals have the ubiquitous "STUDENT DRIVER" stickers plastered on their back window just below the SPAM sticker and the MOTORCYCLES ARE EVERYWHERE sticker.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us. We are pleased to report back to you that this issue is now resolved.

Hope the city does absolutely nothing about this. It’s _so entitled_ to want people to not kill your kids 🙄/s

Nate, nobody is asking your opinion on my valid complaint. You can mind your own business please.

I don't think this traffic sign complaint valid.

Unfortunately you made this the public business of the people of Cambridge :) hope you have a good day!
