One man in Greenfield said his hill is dangerous to walk up, days after a winter storm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">\u201cYou can see there\u2019s lots of footprints everywhere. People are trying to navigate the hill,\u201d Stewart Davis, who lives at the top of Delevan Street. \u201cIt\u2019s just kind of difficult. Even if it\u2019s a bright and sunny day, this hill will take the breath out of you. So, it\u2019s really difficult whenever it\u2019s covered in a foot of unplowed snow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Some of those footprints belonged to our Channel 11 crew as we struggled to get up the hill to speak with Davis. He said he\u2019s had to miss work for several days, and his patience is wearing thin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">\u201cThis is just too much for a little Honda Civic,\u201d Davis said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">In Squirrel Hill, Channel 11 spoke with Roddin Shirazian, a senior at Shadyside Academy. His school had in-person classes on Wednesday, but he couldn\u2019t get out of his driveway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">\u201cI guess the one word would be annoying,\u201d Roddin said. \u201cI\u2019m missing out on stuff. I\u2019m missing school, I\u2019m going to have to retake tests and everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">And in Pittsburgh\u2019s Hill District, neighbors said Watt Street was completely blocked by a pile of snow. Shortly after Channel 11 arrived, a plow showed up and cleared the street.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">\u201cThey are secondary streets, so they are taken care of secondarily, but they need to be taken care of,\u201d said Dorin Moorefield, a business owner in the Hill District.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">The city of Pittsburgh posted on Facebook saying: <\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">\u201cThis morning and afternoon, there will be 45 DPW vehicles and dozens of contractors out working to clear tertiary roads and alleys. Crews will also continue to work on widening main roads and plowing and salting secondary roads.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpxi.com\/mobile-apps\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FREE WPXI News app<\/a> for breaking news alerts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Follow Channel 11 News on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/wpxi\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WPXI\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>. | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpxi.com\/video\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Watch WPXI NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>TOP STORIES FROM CHANNEL 11 NEWS <\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph body-copyright\">\u00a92026 Cox Media Group<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PITTSBURGH \u2014 Channel 11 crews drove through several Pittsburgh neighborhoods to speak with neighbors on Wednesday about the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":99214,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[10142,36111,24358,24364,4304,865,869,48439,36443,48437,19513,1591,3824,6367,48438,14003,139,859,73,75,74,48442,48440,48441,10863,420,48443,860],"class_list":{"0":"post-99238","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-pittsburgh","8":"tag-10142","9":"tag-addison","10":"tag-addison_albert","11":"tag-addison_elbert","12":"tag-channel","13":"tag-channel_1","14":"tag-channel_11","15":"tag-civic","16":"tag-davis","17":"tag-delavan_street","18":"tag-department_of_public_works","19":"tag-facebook","20":"tag-gordon","21":"tag-greenfield","22":"tag-honda","23":"tag-line","24":"tag-news","25":"tag-ott_news","26":"tag-pittsburgh","27":"tag-pittsburgh-headlines","28":"tag-pittsburgh-news","29":"tag-pittsburghs_hill_district","30":"tag-roddon","31":"tag-shadyside_academy","32":"tag-squirrel_hill","33":"tag-video","34":"tag-watts_street","35":"tag-wpxi-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=99238"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99238\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/99214"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=99238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=99238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=99238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
