Well there was a city plow truck and a smaller F-150 spraying some chemicals on the snow but the plow did not plow down to pavement because there is still between 1 and 2 inches of snow on Nancy Lane and after 2 trips with the plow they still did not put anything down for traction. I have lived in WV and PA and in both areas the cities never took as long as the City of Newark to clear the streets and these are the same streets that our kids ride on buses to get to school so this is definitely a public safety matter and I wish that City administration would get the street department running like it should be.

Well our lane got cleared early this morning. My concern is what can be done to prevent this from happening again so I truly believe that the City needs a better procedure in place to be followed when it comes to clearing our streets because it is a Public Safety Matter and I would like to know why the city doesn't use salt or something on roadways more often. I feel that there are many questions to be answered and people to be held responsible when it comes to the procedures for clearing our City Streets and this is not solely on the Street Department because every City Official sees all the issues that we have with the clearing of the City Streets especially King Ave which is between my house and the High School and everyday there are numerous amounts of Kids driving on this Road just to get to school along with every High School Bus.

Issue Closed
