SNOW
CONDITIONS
As soon as the snow flies, Public
Works will set out to plow, clear and pave the
way for safe roads this winter. Response time
to your street will depend on several factors,
including snow moisture, storm duration and
timing.
Did you know that snow comes in different
weights and densities?
Fluffy, dry snow requires less de-icing materials
and plowing than heavy wet snow. Wet snow
may result in very slippery conditions, especially
when snow freezes on pavement.
f
1
The timing of a storm can also determine when
crews begin cleanup.
During high commuting times, crews will make
every effort to keep major streets clear of snow
and ice. Secondary and side streets will be
cleared as soon as possible. Top priority will be
given to heavily traveled roads and bus routes to
ensure everyone’s safety. Snow that falls on these
roads often becomes packed by cars, making it
more difficult to remove. During evening and early
morning storms, Public Works crews should have
ample time to prepare the roads for commuting
hours.
f
The duration of a storm plays an important role
in snow plowing operations.
1
2
Storms of extended duration require all available
resources to keep roads open over an extended
period of time. A snow storm of four inches over
a 24-hour period will require more time and
man-hours than a storm of six inches over an
eight-hour period.
Park City Public Works strives to ensure the safest
possible conditions during and after winter
storms. Plows will continue to clean, treat and
widen roadways until reasonably safe conditions
are met. Know that plows are still hard at work
well after the snow has stopped falling.

Priorities
111

333
From November 1 to April 30, snow removal crews are
prepared to work 24 hours a day. Streets with the most
traffic receive top plowing priority. These include bus
routes, Old Town streets, Royal Street and core business
areas. Once these streets are safe and passable, crews
proceed with second and third-priority streets and cul-desacs in residential areas. As long as the snow keeps falling,
the City’s top priority is to keep the main roads open and
passable. As soon as all priority streets are clear, plows
will move into residential areas. Cul-de-sacs and dead-end
streets are plowed last, as they carry the lowest volume of
traffic. The color-coded map on the back of this brochure
shows the priority of your street.
2

Parking
From November 1 to April 30, special
ordinances apply to facilitate snow removal
and emergency access. For a complete list
of regulations, call Public Works at 435-615-5301.
• Never park any vehicle or place any object that
interferes with snow plowing or removal efforts on any
Park City street.
• No parking on the downhill side of any street south of
12th Street. The downhill side of the street is the side on
which the natural slope is away from the street surface,
where natural drainage flows.
• Main Street, Park Avenue north of Heber Avenue and
Swede Alley are not included in this regulation; however,
parking is prohibited on these streets between 2 a.m. and
6 a.m.
3
Obstructions
The City right-of-way for snow storage
extends five to ten feet back from the
curb. Landscaping installed within the
right-of-way is at the property owner’s risk. It is best
to place a stake near fencing, trees, lot corners and
ornamental rocks to protect your personal property and
make the plow routes safer for drivers.
2
3
When hiring an independent snowplow service, make
sure the contractor is licensed by Park City and complies
with codes. Please make sure your service does not
plow snow onto a neighbor’s yard or onto the public
right-of-way. On trash day, the optimal location of your
trash bin and recycling container is at the end of the
curb or driveway. Please remove it as soon as possible.
For municipal codes and snow removal ordinances,
please visit www.parkcity.org/government.
f
SIDEWALKS
Shoveling sidewalks is a property or business
owner’s responsibility. Sidewalks and
stairways on Main Street, Park Avenue
and Kearns Boulevard will be cleared by Public
Works on a priority basis. Bike paths from Main Street
to Prospector Park will also be plowed – time allowing.
Our goal is to accomplish clearing within eight hours of a
storm. The color-coded map in the back of this brochure
indicates the clearing of your sidewalk.
1

f
Residents in subdivisions are encouraged to park off the
street during a storm. If a snow emergency is declared, it
will be illegal to park on the street.
f
MAILBOXES
1
To ensure regular mail delivery by the
U.S. Postal Service, clear snow around
your mailbox. Each mailbox installation
should be sufficiently solid to withstand
snow-clearing efforts. Mailboxes installed in the right-ofway are placed at the owner’s risk.
f
If your mailbox has been damaged by direct contact with
a city snowplow or city sidewalk plow, contact Public
Works at 435-615-5346. With sufficient evidence, we'll
schedule a repair, once all emergency and snow-related
priorities are completed.

Park City Public Works makes every effort to minimize the
amount of snow plowed into driveways. Plow operators
are unable to lift plow blades as they pass driveways, it is
almost inevitable that this will occur.
You may want to clear your driveway several times during
a storm or wait until city plowing activities have ended.
Please keep in mind that one of the last steps in any snowplowing operation is to push the edges back to widen the
road and allow for future snow storage. Unfortunately,
this standard operation may result in snow at the end of
your driveway.
Shoveling, plowing or blowing snow back into the street
by homeowners, businesses or Park City-licensed snow
removal contractors is prohibited and may be enforced
with a fine. One suggestion to minimize the amount
of snow remaining in front of your driveway, is to clear
an area to the left of the driveway entrance. That way,
when your street is plowed, snow from the plow can be
unloaded in this area instead of your driveway.
• R
espect parking restrictions
to help snowplows navigate
narrow streets.

• In Old Town, do not park on the downside slope
of any street. Cars that remain on the street and
restrict plowing may be ticketed and/or towed.
• Pay close attention to the weather forecast.
• Do not pile snow around or near fire hydrants.
• D o not plow, shovel or blow snow onto
the street.
2
• Observe all winter parking bans.

WINTER TIPS
Tall poles are placed adjacent to fire hydrants
on public streets so they can be seen from
snowplows and fire vehicles. If you notice a fire hydrant
that has not been marked, please call Public Works at 435615-5301. It is extremely important to keep fire hydrants
accessible to assist fire crews in the event of an emergency.
It is the responsibility of the homeowner who has a fire
hydrant at the perimeter of their property to keep the
hydrant clear at all times.

SNOW EMERGENCY
During a snow removal emergency declared by the City,
it is unlawful to park any vehicle on any bus route or
first-priority street (listed in the Municipal Codes). Cars
impeding snow removal may be impounded. If you think
your car has been towed, call Park City Police Impound at
435-615-5500.
For daily weather conditions, special weather
bulletins, road conditions and more general
information on snow removal, tune into Park City
radio station KPCW-91.9 FM or Park City Television
on cable channel 17.
