Scranton DPW sucks

The handicapped in wheel chairs have to ride on the roadway because they can't use the crosswalks. The city did a great job!

Police have been trying to contact DPW for assistance...

Multiple phone call attempts to DPW and the Director, no answer.

Awesome Job yet again DPW!

Just witnessed a public works employee using a city pick up truck for personal use. He delivered a new refrigerator to his own residence.

So much for this new Mayor putting a stop to the corruption. Then again, she turned city hall into a day care center.

People, please use your brains next local election. We need to bring Republicans back to Scranton govenment ASAP!

Scranton Police & Fire are trying to reach out to DPW regarding downed trees in the roadway and traffic lights not working.

Typical response: NO ANSWER.

Common sense with the heavy rains and winds that were forecasted for over a week would tell you to have a crew on stand by or better yet have 2 guys work the night.

Not to mention DPW always has someone working the phones down there. But still no answer..

Update: I just found out this was sent in by the wife of a DPW employee. Get your wives in check boys ....

How did everyone make out with the flooding? I've noticed numerous cars abandoned in flooded roadways. The police and fire departments did a tremendous job working in crazy conditions.

The police and fire requested the DPW to bring out barricades to prevent vehicles from driving through flood water. The DPW did come out but eventually stopped answering their calls which resulted in more damaged and flooded cars with the rain still coming down.

Someone sent this photo in to us. It appears the DPW found a nice quiet spot to relax and ignore calls. Behind a closed buisness in the dark.

But if it was their street or basment flooding they'd be on top of it. Thanks DPW! Our tax dollars HARD(ly) at work.

We would like to Thank the City of Scranton on their recent purchase of a New 2017 Ford F550 with a Galion-Godwin Body with a Plow. Thank you for your continued buisness!

With all the taxes that Scrantonians pay, you would think that basic city services would work. The city of Scranton had at least one week to prepare for this blizzard. The people of Scranton were r…
