Description

I would like to remind the City that there are people who use bicycle as their primary mode of transportation, year-round, in all weather. Many streets in Malden have lots of potholes, and poor drainage, and the Northern Strand is in overall better condition, making it a much better option for bikes in inclement weather.

There is currently a significant amount of slush on the path, and if it's not cleared very soon, it will partially melt, and then freeze into rutted ice, which is very difficult to ride across, even for the most skilled of riders. Please do something about this, and don't forget about the road crossings, where plowed snow frequently gets left where it blocks easy access to the path. Malden DPW has been pretty good about clearing the snow the last two years, but ice and blocked road crossings have been issues.

Thanks
