The city of Norwalk has a great opportunity to self fund snow removal. A cruise along Water Street, West Ave. and Main Ave will reveal sidewalks that have remained un-shoveled since Thursday. What’s worse is that that many of these streets have bus stops without shelters. For Norwalk to truly act like a city that cares about pedestrians, we have to do a better job of enforcing clear, unobstructed, well maintained sidewalks. Fortunately most of the SoNo businesses get this, and Washington and North Main street were clear and inviting. But if you parked at the Maritime Garage, or in the parking lot in front of the Maritime Aquarium, you had to navigate through uncleared walkways as you headed to the retail stores or movie theater.
For West ave. start at Reed Street and head up to the Wall street. Yesterday I saw too many people trudging on the street because the sidewalk was impassable.
Feel free to exapand on any snow related issues in the comments, but better yet, complaints can be called into the city customer service center at 203-854-3200 or emailed to customerservice@norwalkct.org.
And this is the first I heard about the bobcat, but the PD does have a large area to clear.
