I gave up on clearing my own drive yesterday, after brushing away the umpteenth dusting and scattering a bit more rock salt. We’ve since had another 2 or 3 inches of snow. Driveway is now barrierred off down at the end, as anybody who tries to get here will wish they hadn’t.
My own driveway is about 200 ft long which is bad enough. The bigger problem is, beyond my own drive, lies another 400 ft of private unadopted lane, shared by me and three neighbours, of which I am the youngest by some margin. And even after that, there’s just a single track lane up to the main road, another 500ft. In total, anything up to 1100 feet of digging, to reach the first road that carries any real traffic.
Such are the benefits of life in a rural village. That and crap broadband speeds, of course.
