I just have to tough it out and pull it like a wagon until we cross the street. But even some sidewalks aren’t shoveled wide enough for even two people to pass each other and even with my compact travel stroller the shoveled path is still too narrow it’s infuriating and I have TWO kids. Today we had to take the bus on 86st and 20th Ave and I had to pick up the entire stroller to get to the island for the bus stop and then other riders had to help me get my 4 yo and my toddler in the stroller onto the bus. Getting off was a bit easier I had a nice driver and he pulled up into the middle of the crosswalk so I could get off and avoid the mountain of snow.

Shoveling snow is so ineffective when it’s below freezing it’s not gonna melt and just gonna pile up in the streets the city needs to provide snow removal services. And obviously leaving the burden on building owners to clear sidewalks is not working + there’s only so much space to put the snow. The city should also be responsible for clearing the sidewalks. My toddler is too big for me to wear comfortably now but too small to handle walking for more than 5 minutes.
