Winter Walking and Cycling

I think this is where we were discussing sidewalk clearing before. Interesting news from Toronto:

So apparently it turns out that it’s not quite so impossible to clear sidewalks in the city as we may have been led to believe!

I think the question becomes, what is so different about Kitchener and Waterloo that makes sidewalk plowing more difficult here than in Toronto?

It has nothing to do with the width of the sidewalks and everything to do with the cheapness of the taxpayers and fears of the councillors.

Ultimately the timing of COVID is unfortunate, the results might have been different in a different time, but as is, the city squandered half a million dollars on a study they ended up ignoring.
