Snow removal operations resume
Snow removal operations are resuming Monday on streets. Or, as this lede says, “has resumed snow removal operations after halting over the weekend to concentrate its efforts on the sidewalks” – as if clearing snow from sidewalks isn’t true snow removal?
TVA says some drivers are annoyed. When are they not?

The story is untrue anyway, snow removal was going on all weekend in NDG.

Interesting note at the end of the TVA article that boroughs are not allowed to do snow pickup if sidewalks aren’t clear.
I also suspect that it saves a lot of money not to do pickup on weekends, and just do sidewalks, which takes fewer staff and no outside contractors for the trucks. Overtime adds up on weekends.
And to be fair to drivers, it is annoying when they put up no parking signs and keep them up for three days. Can’t recommend the app enough.

I saw snow removal from the streets in both the Sud-Ouest and Ville Marie this weekend.

Outremont was symphony of horns last night.
