The same thing happens here with bike lanes that share the road. But once enough snow accumulation has happened, a lost lane will be unavailable until spring.

The dedicated bike path that cuts through my community is closed during the winter and much of the spring (too much snow accumulation). The snow plow budget in most years couldn't possibly cover it.
