Why hasn't my street been plowed yet?

This generally becomes an issue when snowstorms occur during the day. At night the majority of people don't know when their street was plowed. Main streets and areas around schools (when they are in session) are plowed first and then residential streets. The reasons are:

  • The main streets carry the most traffic volume.
  • Emergency access to all areas is best achieved by working from primary roads into neighborhoods.

It can take up to 8 hours to completely clear a snow plow route once a storm has ended. All roads will be cleared before crews are released at the end of a storm.
