    We’ve invented means to clear roads of snow, that’s how we manage to make cars go on them during winter

      Yes, they’re called snowplows and they don’t clear bike lanes.

        Yes that sounds insurmountable

        Come on man don’t be so car-brained. There’s obviously places outside of where you live where that problem showed up and solutions exist.

          That would absolutely not clear a 2 lane street with a bike lane on the side of 2 feet of snow and keep the bike lane clear. Be serious.

            There’s going to be a type of snow clearing device for every type of bike lane

            Do you want me to keep googling them for you until you run out of ideas and then stop responding?

            Come on

              Sure, you google me a snow clearing device that will clear plowed snow after a 2-foot snowfall away from a bike lane that abuts a bunch of parked cars on a narrow street and also doesn’t create a traffic hazard. Because that’s what we deal with in my town.

                  Yeah, you do see that bike lane is separated from the rest of the road by a concrete line so that plow can plow that area separately from the rest of the road, right?

                    If it’s not separated you just use the regular snow plower?
