It snowed yesterday. Why hasn't my street been plowed?

It snowed yesterday. Why hasn't my street been plowed?

Once snow blankets our city in large quantities our crews gear up to plow Prince George's 735 kilometres of roads and 200 kilometres of sidewalks as efficiently as possible. Our routes are planned according to a coloured priority system.

• Priority 1 (red) and Priority 2 (green) routes are cleared within 48 hours after snowfall ends if at least 7.5 centimetres of accumulates over 24 hours.
• Priority 3 (grey) routes are cleared within 72 hours after Priority 1 (red) and Priority 2 (green) routes are finished.
