According to our partners at the National Weather Service, a fast-moving storm will bring the season’s first chance for snow later today. Low visibility, wind, and slick driving conditions are likely. While accumulating snow is not anticipated, the Public Works Snow Team is ready to respond as needed. Remember to slow down and increase your traveling distance when the snow starts to fly.

Winter is just around the corner, and Davenport is preparing for the season to arrive. Plow blades and spreaders are being installed, training is underway, and our salt supply has been replenished.

As part of winter preparation, the city encourages all residents and visitors to be prepared. This includes signing up for Snow Emergency Alerts. Signing up for alerts is the most reliable way to know when a Snow Emergency has been declared and when parking on posted snow routes is prohibited.

Snow emergencies are declared when the area is expected to receive ice and/or hazardous volumes of snow. Parking is prohibited on Posted Snow Routes when a snow emergency is declared to help Public Works crews ensure the highest traffic volume roads and hills receive priority service, which helps everyone get around when the snow starts to fly.

To avoid a ticket or being towed for parking on a Posted Snow Route during a snow emergency, be in the know – subscribe to receive an alert at www.davenportiowa.com/alertiowa.
