Snow Removal
CITY OF CARMEL
STREET DEPARTMENT
UP TO 3" OF SNOW: The City salts and/or plows only main streets
such as Rangeline Road, Main Street, Gray Road, Springmill Road, 116th
Street, etc., and secondary streets such as Brookshire Parkway,
Lakeshore Drive East and West, Adios Pass, Avian Way, etc.
3" OR MORE OF SNOW: Main and secondary streets are salted and/or
plowed as the snow falls. After the majority of the snowing, blowing, or
sleeting has ceased; a complete city plow is started with every street
in the City being plowed. (Cul-de-sacs are not ALWAYS plowed out
completely. This is usually only done when the snowfall is considerably
more than 3".)
Salting
is routinely done only on main and secondary streets. Bridges, hills and
intersections are salted as needed.
It takes approximately 24 hours to plow all 388 miles of streets and
over 700 cul-de-sacs in the City of Carmel.
