Dear editor:
I think it's about time Moose Jaw started doing things like modern cities do; ticketing and/or towing vehicles impeding snow removal.
Those who refuse to move their vehicles to aid in plowing efforts are not the only ones paying taxes for this service; we all pay, and the few are spoiling it for the many.
All snow routes are sign posted and there is a snow removal priority map online. Ignorance is no excuse.
Another improvement would be trucking the largest piles of snow away instead of leaving them at corners, pedestrian crossings and bus stops.
I know transit riders, children walking to school, those with mobility concerns, and pedestrians in general would appreciate it.
We all know it snows every year. The city knows this too, and it’s time for them and vehicle owners to get their act together.
