INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WISH) After Monday’s snowstorm, some sidewalks along Meridian Street and other parts of the city haven’t been cleared, so pedestrians and people in wheelchairs can find it hard to get to places.
“Even if you have a caretaker with you that’s helping you get around, it’s just going to take three times as long to get anywhere,” said David Dreith, president and chief executive office of Easterseals Crossroads.
According to the Indianapolis Department of Public Works, the city relies on its homeowners and businesses to help remove the snow on the sidewalks and make it passable. If the snow isn’t removed, homeowners and businesses could be fined $50 unless the snow was thrown on the sidewalk by a snowplow.
