Thanks to a reader for sending: “Of all the things to be taking up road space…”
One of many similar emails I’ve received:
“I live off H St NE and this is my back yard… The alley is too small for a plow and it’s about 25-30 yards each way of knee deep and higher snow! Snowzilla strikes again!”
Ed. Note: In February of last year DDOT and DPW reminded residents “that as a policy the District does not plow alleys”.
A reader reports:
“Precious plowing resources being used to plow the streetcar tracks and 3rd and H, NE.
DDOT contractor has just piled up the snow from the tracks in the middle of the street and started to plow in my already passable street until I started to take pictures. When I protested that they were plowing in an already passable street, the guy said, “I have to do what I have to do.” Nice. They are plowing for a mode of transportation that does not even have passengers. Using precious plowing and taxpayer resources irresponsibly, again.”
