The city’s transportation priorities are clear from its actions. While the streets and intersections are clear the pedestrians have to navigate icy sidewalks and giant piles of slush in the crosswalks. We can do better.

An intersection with the road clear and a large pile of slush blocking the crosswalk.

I'm starting to say things like

"It's not ADA compliant if it's not ADA compliant all year"

In my town home owners are still responsible for clearing snow on the sidewalk before their house. Which is ridiculous.

@CelloMomOnCars I like that statement. I’m stealing it. 😊

The same rule applies here for residents shoveling their own sidewalks in residential areas. The photos I took were from downtown where the city handles cleanup. As you would expect, residential areas are even worse. I am still the only house on my street with a clear sidewalk.

Conscientious residents like you are rare!
And honestly, no home owner is asked to clear the snow on the car lanes: why should we clear snow on the sidewalks which also carries traffic? All it does is to make residents resist the building of sidewalks.
