Snow removal slowed in Anchorage due to high windsThe equivalent of over 66 Olympic-sized swimming pools of snow has been trucked out from Anchorage streets, an amount that has made it tough to clear roads and sidewalks simultaneously. Sounds like fodder. From OceanView to International there are no clear sidewalks. They were warned and did nothing. Paul VanLandingham sounds full of it. That might be. But it isn’t noticeable for most. 10th avenue hasn’t been cleared for those who pay to park there. There is just one lane through my neighborhood. The city isn’t doing anything to open up the street. This isn’t acceptable. Ready to read the flood of complaints from people who have never plowed once in their life. Amazing people think the snow will just be hauled off right away. Anchorage is just not designed well 'I cant walk in alaska!!!' Well if they dont plow then you cant drive either
