When #winter hits, the sidewalk-alley #intersections are NOT ploughed at all.

#Alley traffic creates an ever-rising snowpack that *sometimes* erases much of the problem with the intersection slopes themselves BUT once this starts to melt, the entire section is 100% #impassable if relying on #cane, #crutches, #rollator, or #wheelchair.

Spain shovels out of snowdrifts left by Storm Filomena · The One Hot News

MADRID (AP) — Emergency crews in central Spain cleared 500 roads and rescued over 1,500 people stranded in vehicles as the country slowly shovels out of its worst snowstorm in recent memory. Madrid’s Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas International Airport remained closed Sunday as it has since Friday night. Train lines traversing the capital were also shut down and over 150 roads were still impassable.
