Also: it seems bold of them to assume a driver can even get to their vehicle with the current state (and soon to be signficantly worse!) residential roads.
Not to mention that it took several days of unseasonably warm weather to melt off the unshovelled or city snow-blading dumping for the sidewalks to be clear enough to walk on "safely" … still crap for #rollators and #wheelchairs at any alleyway crossing. 🙄
Clearly, the attached-garage crowd has been just fine, amirite? 🙄😡
Thank you for the #intel!
The decorative lampposts sound lovely, but yeah, not helpful for the problems of heat and #asphalt.
The thing is, that even in advance of #HeatDomes and serial #heatwaves neighbourhoods like mine are unwalkable in the summer from heat alone.
In the winter, the sloped sidewalk concrete that almost-seamlessly joins the asphalt roadway AND lack of routine snow clearance means that street parkers are often parked somewhat on the sidewalk itself.
This is particularly easy to do when the #snowpack on the road is higher than the sidewalk, which is most winters, even ones with relatively little snow.
This narrows the sidewalks to the point that even if cleared, they are not necessarily wide enough to use with #AssistiveDevices such as #rollators and #wheelchairs.
I really want #yegAccessible, year-round!

There's no reason that mobility equipment has to be ugly. This is a rollator (wheeled walking frame that doubles as a portable seat) for people who have balance issues, pain, or fatigue, and it's gorgeous.
If you think that this is a trivial issue, the appearance of mobility equipment can affect the degree of ableism/ageism that other people inflict on the person using the mobility equipment. Also, far too many falls are due to people who won't use their mobility equipment because they worry that it makes them "look old".
And putting the brake cables inside the rollator frame means they won't get snagged on things, which can be a hazard with other types of rollators.
I have not been paid in any way whatsoever for making this post.
