This includes:

Advising drivers to be prepared for hazardous road conditions
Reminding residents to obey odd-even parking regulations
Informing property owners to clear their sidewalks and around fire hydrants for pedestrian safety

Residents are encouraged to use the City’s live Snow Plow Map and to follow @SYRCityline on social media to for up-to-date road conditions throughout the weather event. We always encourage residents and visitors to make informed decisions before traveling in snowy conditions.
