The DOT inspects and temporarily addresses sidewalk defects on NYCHA properties when receiving complaints, then works with NYCHA to schedule permanent repairs.

  • When DOT receives a complaint about a sidewalk on or around a NYCHA property, they inspect the issue
  • DOT makes the defect safe by temporarily addressing the complaint
  • DOT then works with the housing authority to put the issue on a schedule for permanent repair

DOT will go out and inspect, and DOT will make it safe so that the defect and the complaint is basically kinda resolved and then DOT will work with the housing authority to put it on a repair for a permanent to put it on our schedule for a permanent repair.
