Maybe they could use a smaller plow (like the yellow side-walk ones) along the boulevards/curbs and then use the big ones to move the snow after? I'm really not sure.
Near my place, the plows have destroyed the already old, crumbling sidewalks. Some are asphalt-covered (gross) and have had the asphalt ripped free of the underlying concrete, while others are 60 year old sidewalks that are now missing huge chucks out of them. I guess it doesn't cost the city anything if they never repair/maintain pedestrian infrastructure.
