Why does it take so long for crews to get to my street?
We do our best to arrive in a timely manner, but not everyone can be first. We are required to keep the snow emergency routes open and so they are plowed first and kept open. Only after this is complete are we able to move on to the collector streets. After these are opened, we can move to the rest of the streets, which are primarily residential.
