Evidence reviewed and found consistent. Not a claim of complete truth.
WHAT WOULD CHANGE THIS STATUS?
A clearing-schedule commitment from the road authority, or a workable community-run alternative, would move this to Solution Proposed. A full winter with no access loss would reopen whether the issue persists.
Every record states in advance what evidence would move it. A status is a current reading of the evidence, not a verdict.
Local context
Deliveries and medical transport are unreliable for several weeks each winter. Residents coordinate informally by phone.
Who is affected: About 60 residents (synthetic).
