LETTER: There's a solution to ice left in your driveway by plows

SooToday received the following letter to the editor from reader RW Porter in response to David Helwig's article, 'Snow consultant wants city to scrap ‘two-foot’ driveway policy,' published March 17. 

I understand the financial problems of plowing everyone's driveway and the difficulties of shovelling heavy snow and ice.

Maybe the city should look at Winnipeg, MB. (I believe this is where I saw a similar story). They have solved the issue by installing a second blade to the side of their trucks. It is designed specifically for clearing driveways as the plow truck clears the street.

Seems like a win-win to me. Cost-effective, and people do not have to find help for a difficult task.
