Why Was Roosevelt Island F Subway Station Footpath And Ferry Dock Entrance Not Salted And Slippery Mess Today Asks Twitterverse - Gets Response From State Senator Serrano And NYC Ferry

The Roosevelt Island Twitterverse asks why Roosevelt Island subway station and ferry dock not salted and cleared of snow today.

And gets response.

@Rooseveltisland Hi it seems none of the footpaths around the subway station were salted today. As far as you know is this normal for RI?

Yes. I think @NYCTSubway is supposed to salt and shovel but I can’t recall them doing it. @RIOCny @BenKallos @SeawrightForNY @SenatorSerrano

Same thing with the ferry.
It was a slippery mess.

Good Evening, @Rooseveltisland! Thank you for letting us know. We will contact our partners at the city that manage the landings so they can send a team to the barge with salt. Have a great evening! -M
