snow removal/clearing

[Northern Light]

This particular patch of sidewalk along the west side of Lansdowne, just south of Davenport and leads up to a bus stop, remains uncleared. The snow has since hardened and can get quite slippery, especially at night time

Yeah I'm aware of 311. It's been done as per people from the community FB group. Waiting well over a week.

They were doing some pretty major work on Bloor around Ossington last night. The bike lane should be pretty smooth and passable today, which hasn't really been the case for the last week.

The driving lanes, of course, have been clear and passable since 5 minutes after the snow stopped.

Saw someone take a nasty spill this morning while walking over an icy section on Dundas.

Yeah, it got just cold enough overnight to turn all the melty stuff into a sheet of ice.

Yeah, it got just cold enough overnight to turn all the melty stuff into a sheet of ice.

Especially when the "melty" stuff has road salt mixed within it.

I don't think it got cold enough to freeze salty melty stuff. Maybe tomorrow night.

I saw in a statement from Councillor Bravo that this ward (Davenport) received 2,132 service requests for snow clearing/removal in 311 between the 12th and 23rd – the most of any ward in the city – so this is isn’t surprising. :/

In the wake of the snow storms, I genuinely believe sidewalk plow operators are driving down the road to get the gps box ticked and just not doing the work. What other explanation is there for the route being followed but zero evidence of a plow on the sidewalk.
