Residents of Plymouth can relax knowing that plans are well underway for the snowy months. According to the city’s policies, when two inches or more of snow falls, a snow emergency is declared, which starts citywide plowing and sets off special parking rules to make the cleanup process easier. Officials stress their dedication in a statement that the City of Plymouth was able to obtain: “the goal is to have all streets and cul-de-sacs cleared within nine hours after snow quits falling.” Only the primary roads and approved secondary streets will be exposed to the plow’s blade during lighter snowfalls.
After a 2-inch snowfall, residents should be aware that parking is not allowed on city streets until the roadways have been cleared curb-to-curb. This parking rule, which is in effect year-round from 2:00 to 5:00 A.M., is essential for plows to effectively clear the streets. The City of Plymouth states that cars that are left on the road during certain times could be ticketed or even towed.
Through the city’s online portal at plymouthmn.gov/myplymouth, residents can report any plowing problems, slippery patches, or damage from the winter operations. A useful Live Plow Map that shows plow progress in almost real time is also available from the City of Plymouth at plymouthmn.gov/liveplowmap. Residents can use this feature to stay up to date on local snowplowing activities.
