Sidewalk level bike also showing snow

I agree. The city has done an atrocious job with snow removal in protected bike lanes. The entirety of Mass Ave from the bridge to Harvard square is nearly impossible by bike, and the only clear section of protected bike lane is a single block between Albany and Windsor. You've taken something that was supposed to improve bike safety and made the streets MORE dangerous by forcing bikes into the street in places where they aren't expected and the road has been narrowed to accommodate the protected bike infrastructure. Taking a look at the Longfellow Bridge, it is clearly possible to do better if you only bothered to care.

Does it maybe need to be pointed out at some level of the bureaucracy, or to the teams that do the work, or both, that people on bikes have an equal right to commute to work, that bikes are a form of transportation that's protecting the lungs of the rest of us (not to mention birds and animals) in Cambridge, not just a weekend recreation they remember from childhood? I don't understand why bike lines are treated as parking spaces and snow dumps, but the problem might be solved by some consciousness-raising.

Bike lanes are used by people every day to go to work. People who live or work and pay taxes in Cambridge. Please ensure the same level of service as for motorized vehicles.

Thank you for reporting your concern to City of Cambridge via Commonwealth Connect. This has been added to the list of locations for our crews to address.

This location was addressed as part of snow removal operations overnight 1/23.
