But when it comes to sidewalks, things are a little different.
Across Hudson County’s municipalities, residents have complained about the lack of snow removal from sidewalks and crosswalks, raising concerns about safety and accessibility.
“It’s not just a convenience issue, it’s a safety issue,” said Kevin Bing, the president of the Journal Square Community Association. “You don’t want pedestrians walking in the street. And it’s an equity issue if somebody has to use a wheelchair, stroller, or mobility device.”
