During light snow events (0-4” of snow): Crews will focus on clearing a 20 foot path around the perimeter of the cul-de-sac with the blade of the plow angled toward the middle. This will allow easy access to driveways. During heavier snow events (4” or more): With the substantial amount of snow that can build up in cul-de-sacs during heavy snowfalls, additional snow control efforts have been put into place. When heavy snow hits, plows initially will create a passable lane through the cul-de-sac so residents can drive in and out of the street. Then, as other snow removal efforts wind down, crews will return to the cul-de-sac to move snow into available green space. With this new policy in place, crews will be able to focus on clearing O’Fallon’s streets as quickly and efficiently as possible without inadvertently causing large snow windrows on cul-de-sacs, which inconvenience homeowners. Due to the substantial amount of snow that can build up in cul-de-sacs during heavy snowfalls, these streets require additional snow control efforts. Crews begin by providing a single lane clear path into the cul-de-sac. Then, as other snow removal efforts wind down, crews will return to the cul-de-sac to move snow into available green space. With this new policy in place, crews will be able to focus on clearing O’Fallon’s streets as quickly and efficiently as possible without inadvertently causing large snow windrows (piles), which inconvenience homeowners.
