weve been getting hammered with snow/freezing rain and the people in charge of maintaining the bridges havent done any sidewalk snow removal or salting for us that get around on PEV's and need to go over those bridges and use the dedicated biking paths, a total failure every year pretty much.they also very rarely do any kind of sweeping to get rid of the garbage that litters the pathways.
