QUESTION
When will my road be plowed?

ANSWER

Roads are plowed based on traffic. Initial efforts focus on roads with higher traffic volumes. These roads are designated as priority routes and are typically destination-based, meaning they provide service between two high traffic destinations. For example, County Home Road between Highway 13 and Interstate 380 is a priority route with a great deal of traffic. Hard surface roads with lower traffic volumes are plowed next, followed by sub-division roads. Gravel roads are plowed between the hours of 7 am and 3:30 pm. We first attempt to open gravel roads to one lane of traffic and then remove the rest of the snow over the following days.
