The sidewalk south of 100 State Street's driveway to Gray Street is a sheet of ice, now topped with a layer of rain and melt. It is slippery and dangerous to traverse; the only alternative is to walk in busy State Street traffic. In addition, although the section around the #8 bus stop on State Street has been partially cleared, the immediate boarding area near the curb is packed, uneven ice, now also slippery and slick with rain and melt. It is genuinely treacherous for the many elderly people who use this bus stop, some who use walkers, canes and other assistive devices, and ofter have loaded grocery carts. (Someone has dumped sand on this area, but it's now just turned to mud.). This is a fall and broken bones waiting to happen - which, in older people, can be life-threatening.

Whose responsibility is it to make this bus stop safe? METRO's or 100 State Street's? It is a real health and safety hazard.
