Edmonton's insistence on contiguous sidewalks-to-roadways is a key factor in preventing residential areas from remaining #accessible year-round.

Current warm weather melts windrows or snowpack on unplowed streets. Even IF residents cleared their walks thoroughly, the walks become flooded from roadmelt, and then refreeze as a sheet of smooth ice.

Remediating to include boulevards between would reduce/eliminate this.
