We have the same problem here, we all have to kerb park as it's a narrow one way street, unfortunately this mean everyone starts off trying to move their cars off an icy kerb onto an icy road surface with very little space between the cars in front and parked on the other side of the road. Add the speed cushions on the road and then the speed tables each end surrounded by solid metal bollards and our street is a disaster waiting to happen.
Start of the year someone lost their front bumper and one front wing to the bollards.... not gonna risk it until their is less ice on the tables. Busses till then but unfortunately the footpaths are completely iced over, don't get any grit, have little foot traffic at the moment to break up the surface and are a complete death trap.
