SNOW ROUTES IN EFFECT FOR MOLINE
 

Posted 01/07/10

The City of Moline wishes to advise residents that snow routes are now in effect within the city. All vehicles must be moved from snow routes to provide for efficient snow removal. City snow routes are marked with signs. Vehicles not removed from the snow routes will be towed.

Moline’s snow removal is a 24 hour operation, and snow routes will be in effect until all routes are clear. City crews are expected to begin clearing residential areas this afternoon. Motorists should use caution when driving, and stay a safe distance behind the snow plows.

Residents are also encouraged to refrain from parking on city streets, which are not designated as snow routes, after a snowfall. Residents should park in driveways when at all possible, as this is helpful to city crews during the snow removal process.

Residents with questions regarding whether or not they are located on a snow route may contact the Public Works Department at 309-524-2400. Residents may also visit the city’s website at www.moline.il.us, and click on “Winter Preparedness” located under Quick Links on the homepage.

The City of Moline wishes to further remind home and business owners that it is the property owner’s responsibility to remove snow from sidewalks that border their property within 12 hours of a snowfall.
