If it's not separated you just use the regular snow plower?
Do you think maybe, just maybe, it's possible that there isn't a single solution for every city and town in the world and there are unique problems they can face which make things other cities can do untenable? Is that even a remote possibility? Or does it not apply to plowing snow?
I can't think of a single place in the world that can't have bikes but can have cars
You cant think to think of any either, to be honest...
Good thing I didn't say it can't have bikes then. This is what I said:
Bikes don’t work well in places like where I live when you can easily get 1-2 feet of snow in the winter. Or very icy roads.
Please don't put words in my mouth.
I'm pretty sure you can always solve that problem for bikes if you can solve it for cars
If you can't solve it for cars then these places are beyond relevance for urbanism
First of all, cars have a much greater grip on the road in icy conditions. So they can handle things like black ice when riding a bicycle on it would be extremely dangerous.
But sure, every small city and town with harsh winters are beyond relevance.
Small city and towns don't have cars now?

Small cities and towns have a big problem solving things like black ice for cars. Hence the many accidents on days like that when people drive in those conditions. I know because I used to work for the local news station.
But hey, we're beyond relevance.
Beyond relevance period?
I thought I meant beyond relevance for urbanism, and by the way I mostly meant for this discussion about snow on bike lanes.

Small towns going bankrupt is a result of newer means of transportation concentrating centers of activity within a region.
If you can't clean the ice for cars, cleaning it for bikes is cheaper. If you can't do any, then don't do any - you've got worse problems. Thus, irrelevant for this discussion.

I can't go by what you thought you meant. I went by what you said.
I went by what you said.
You literally didn't. You cut it off mid sentence.
It's insane how you've moved the goalpost from "It's impossible to clean snow off bike lanes" to "it's impossible to clean snow off some bike lanes when the conditions of the bike lanes are very specific" to "it's impossible to clean off bikelanes when the city is tiny and too broke to clean it off roads in the first place"
Guess what? Then don't clean them. Discussion has been moved to a segment of the problem that is so small and uninteresting that and if you had been clear about your message in the first place, nobody would've needed to answer you
Bye
I went by what you said.
