Another snow report for yall! I previously reported this issue in ticket #206983 on 12/01/2025. City and County snowplows create a large mound of snow where Morton St meets the convention center parking lot, near the B-line. Yellow bollards block car traffic, but pedestrians and cyclists use this intersection to get on the B-line. So now we can’t pass. And it’s like 5.5 feet tall. Thanks for that Fern. Even with my back I tried shoveling again but the snow was too compacted for me to move effectively (and perhaps I should go to the gym lol). For the short term, is it possible for a smaller plow to try clearing a path through? I hope this berm isn’t stuck here til springtime. In the long term, I have a few ideas: 1) have the plow on Morton street plow southward as much as possible, so only the short stretch north of Smith ends up at that intersection (I know there could be other logistical factors I’m unaware of to make that impossible) 2) have a smaller snow plow (like used on the B line) ready to go in the area, so it can go back and forth to keep the path clear even as the big snow plows pile up the snow. Idk I’m not a city planner so I’m sure there are reasons my ideas wouldn’t work, but I hope yall can come up with a solution to keep this path clear. Thanks for your work in managing the snow. It’s a Sisyphean task. In the meantime I’m going to work on my back and go to the gym so I can shovel better next winter.

Please please please clear off some of the metered parking between 2nd and 3rd streets. I had to park blocks away from my residence, then will have to walk every day in the freezing cold at 5am to get to my vehicle until there are enough spots there.

Hello, I am an elderly resident with a disability living at the dead end of Swain Avenue. The previous tenant had requested that city snow removal not extend to the end of the street (I do not know why). Unfortunately, this is creating a serious hardship for me. I park my vehicle at the left side of the end of the street next to my home. With the current snow conditions and the lack of plowing to this area, I am unable to safely leave my home. I have critical medical appointments scheduled this week that I cannot miss, and access to my vehicle is essential. I kindly request that snow plowing be extended to the end of Swain Avenue moving forward so I can safely exit my home. This is an urgent safety and accessibility concern. Thank you, Mary Ann Hope

The property owner/manager has done NO snow removal since the snowstorm on January 24th & 25th. The parking lots and sidewalks have not been touched for snow removal. Tenants cannot leave safely or at all due to the neglect of the property owner/manager.

Elkins property management says they will shovel our driveway and sidewalk and they never do so we have to.
