Similarly, the east end of the Law Park bike path, one of the most heavily used
paths in the city, was snowed in from drifts. It was reported on Thursday the
3rd. I reported it again on Friday the 4th. This morning, while much of it
had melted, the south side is still covered with drifts, meaning Parks had not
yet been through to take care of this. Imagine if the Beltline were completely
drifted in. Do you think Streets would let it sit for four days? How does the
city expect to get Platinum consideration when bicycling maintenance issues get
such low priority from the city?

I tried getting to work last night via the bike path
on the south side of Atwood Ave/Monona Drive. After
the first 20 yards of this stretch of path (heading
east) the drifts are so bad, covering the entire width
of the path with anywhere from four to twelve inches
of snow. In short, it's un-ridable.
It may have been sometime since snow has fallen here
in Madison but what snow already rests on the ground
is still prone to drift. Is the city supposed to
perform maintenance in these instances?
