Snow will first be cleared with 8-foot lane in each direction. Crews plow again within 24 hours to clears snow gutter-pan to gutter-pan. Cul-de-sacs are generally the last to be cleared as they oftentimes require alternate equipment and/or a greater time commitment and priority must be given to clearing main roadways.
