Illegal Dumping for complaints about dirty step streets report as Past Illegal Dumping

Sidewalk staircases, also known as step streets, are pedestrian-only stairways built in hilly areas where it is too steep to have an actual road.

You can report trip hazards, crumbling stairs, loose railings, and other damage on sidewalk staircases.

Report a problem with a sidewalk staircase.

If the location is not a sidewalk staircase, use Broken Sidewalk page.
