Public Safety & Quality of Life

By addressing these interconnected issues, we can create neighborhoods that are not just safer, but more livable, walkable, and enjoyable for everyone in District 2.

The Challenge

Worcester residents deserve safe streets, reliable infrastructure, and efficient public services. Currently, dangerous road conditions, inadequate pedestrian safety, and limited public transportation options are reducing quality of life and creating unnecessary hazards.

My Vision

A Worcester where residents feel safe in their neighborhoods, can navigate our streets safely regardless of how they travel, and enjoy responsive public services that enhance community well-being.

My Plan

Community-Centered Public Safety

  • Foster positive community and police relations built on mutual respect and understanding

  • Support comprehensive training for officers in de-escalation, mental health response, and cultural sensitivity

  • Ensure accountability and transparency in all public safety departments

  • Implement community-based solutions that address root causes of crime

Transportation Safety Improvements

  • Launch a comprehensive street safety initiative focusing on Worcester's most dangerous intersections

  • Improve sidewalks, crosswalks, lighting, and signage throughout District 2

  • Implement traffic calming measures in residential areas and near schools

  • Advocate for better snow removal on sidewalks to ensure year-round accessibility

Public Transportation Enhancement

  • Work with state partners to establish permanent fare-free WRTA service

  • Advocate for increased routes and extended service hours to better serve residents

  • Support transit-oriented development that reduces car dependency

  • Improve bus stop infrastructure with better shelters, seating, and real-time arrival information

Quality of Life Services

  • Enhance parks and recreational spaces with better maintenance and modern amenities

  • Support community-building initiatives that bring neighbors together

  • Address noise pollution, illegal dumping, and other quality of life concerns

  • Improve communication between city services and residents through accessible digital platforms
