What do you think about rubber Sidewalks?

They have started putting in rubber sidewalks in major cities in the US. What do you think of them? I think that when winter comes or when it rains that rubbers going to be 10 times slippery then the actual concrete sidewalk. And with the heat rising so much who says its not going to melt?
