Description

I drove around Phoenixville today, noticing that most of the roads--even minor, residential ones--are almost free of ice and snow. But Columbia Ave., west of Callowhill, is a noticable exception. Slush and ice are layered several inches thick--high enough to scrape my car's undercarriage if a wheel hits one of the many ruts on the road. On top of that, when the frozen slush melts a bit during the day, traffic on the road piles up 6" high mounds that block my car in its shoveled out parking space; I've had to shovel and/or chop ice several times in the last couple of days.
