Please watch out for these guys. City workers are the backbone of the city.
With snow in the forecast, City Street crews have been prepping roadways with a de-icer and they're expecting to dispatch plows after midnight.
Please help us with the following:
- Do not obstruct the path of a plow. Plows need to maintain a constant rate of speed to remove snow from the roadway. Braking, turning, or passing in front of a plow can be dangerous for both the driver and the plow operator.
- Stay 30 feet or more behind plows. Plows are also equipped to spray salt and sand onto the roadway - typically at intersections. Staying about three vehicle lengths or more behind plows can save your vehicle some paint damage.
- Slow down. The posted speed limit is for ideal driving conditions. When there is snow or ice on the roadway, drivers should reduce their speed to prevent accidents.
