Night Plow Routes are plowed from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. the night a Snow Emergency is declared. Downtown streets are Night Plow Routes. Day Plow Routes have no plowing signs. They're plowed from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and normally following night plowing. There are some exceptions to these rules, but they're all well marked.
Parking is banned until snow is plowed all the way to the curb.
The City now tickets and tows cars before the plows begin. Towing can result in substantial towing and storage fees. If you would like to get direct e-mail notification of the next Snow Emergency, please join the Snow Emergency Mailing List. If you're going across the river, you may want to check Minneapolis' web pages to see if there's a Snow Emergency in effect. All rights reserved.
