I'm in Reston.  Our neighborhood hires a private contractor to plow, so our parking lots are in decent shape.  However, there is only one lane going into and out of our neighborhood, and the students would need to stand in that road in order to catch a bus.  The sidewalks (which are adjacent to this road) are completely covered in snow; they don't abut private property so it's not clear who should be clearing them.  Because of the height of the snowbanks on either side of our neighborhood, visibility is a real issue for anyone entering or leaving the neighborhood, by car or on foot.

Yesterday driving around Reston there were plenty of places without turn lanes, where plows and heavy equipment obstructed traffic, and where melting snow led to treacherous conditions.

So yes, I would say our area is still bad.  We are a family with 2 working families; it's not ideal but we are taking turns covering.

And to the PP who suggested that SACC centers should be open -- our elementary school did not even see a plow until late last night.  So there would have been no safe way for students and teachers to enter the building.
