1. Street gutter

A street gutter is the shallow channel along the edge of a road, designed to collect and direct surface water runoff (such as rainwater or melted snow) toward storm drains. Cyclists and pedestrians should avoid traveling too close to the gutter due to debris or slippery surfaces.

  • In cold climates, gutters may hide black ice or trap snow, creating hazards.
  • Should be cleaned regularly by street sweepers.
  • Blocked gutters can cause: flooding, ice patches or damage to roads or sidewalks.
