Your thoughts?

Letter from the Editor: I have sincere appreciation for this young man who in his Facebook comment is explaining the hard work and struggles that snow plow drivers go through in keeping our community safe and while driving nonstop for hours overnight! Hats off to you Conor and thank you for a job well done! 👍

“Conor Scarry
I plowed and salted my route in Somerville for over 30 hours my route consisted of 42 streets in total including highland ave, summer st, elm st, all the way from Lowell st down to Davis square, and I personally got stuck 3 separate times during the storm in a f550 with dual tires on the back in 4 wheel drive. Each time stuck it takes the city to come down with a front loader and chains to pull you out. And that’s why terraces are low on the priority list. It’s nothing personal but the city needs main streets and congested active areas cleared 1st. And if your plowing and you decided to take on one of these skinny dead end terraces by yourself it’s a liability, cars normally parked on both sides and the chance of getting stuck, I got called to a terrace off of Lowell street to help a stuck city vehicle and got them right out but then tried to do the same thing for a stuck Somerville police officer and ended up stuck right behind him , we both sat for an hour before being pulled out with heavy equipment. I know it’s easy to judge a situation from the outside looking in but from what I witnessed me and my crew and the Dpw boys worked their asses off. But hard work does not always mean that everything was done correctly.
We all human though. So you know. We all make mistakes.”
