Description
Consistently when it snows our entire street(Penrith Rd) is not plowed. Either it’s just the center or big swaths of snow in the street remain. This picture is of Penrith road today at 4pm towards the Westbrook side that was not plowed. To explain, we had already called the city earlier today because only one narrow center lane of our street (Penrith) was plowed. So I called and was told “that’s how they do it, they do a quick pass down the center and come back later to plow the rest.” I explained that it had been several hours and no one had come back yet. I also explained I was calling because this happens regularly with no one “coming back”. This creates issues for walking, driving when 2 cars are passing, when storing trash for collection and gets worse as snow continues during the season. The whole street should be cleared when it snows and ideally all at the same time please, which is what used to happen a couple of years ago, but seems to have become rare. Someone came back today which is appreciated, but they left this large swath at the end of the street which is an issue, especially because this is the bus stop location for kids. Thank you for your attention and please help us with this ongoing issue, we appreciate it.
