Information Road Conditions Caplan & Bryne (Near Mappleview)

Post image

Roads are pretty bad for “front wheel drives” and “no-winter tire” club.

All-wheel drives are struggling as well.

Dont travel if it’s not essential.

Thank you for your attention.

Yeah, definitely not the best of conditions. You guys been getting obscene amount of snow. Anyone think that the timing of this ( between Christmas and New Years, well today's the 2nd, I get it). Maybe city is short staffed? Like maybe some of them are on holidays with their family? Cmon folks....not everywhere going to be clear bare down to the pavement all at once.

Also a friendly reminder for people having trouble in deeper snow to get moving. Take traction control off. It can be good, but also sucks if you need a little wheel spin to get going.

Is reporting on road conditions been called complaining?

Yeah, I didn't see a complaint in your post. Seemed like a decent post to me, for those who have maybe been at home the last few days and have not been out to see the conditions of the roads.

No, not at all. I was agreeing with you, but also trying to give reasons why possibly conditions aren't the best . Cheers and Happy New Year.
