CLOSED Move to 7 Day SNIC Plan. Thank you for your Service Request. Please know that we are currently working through our 7 Day plan and this location will be addressed through our 7 day snow plan. Priority System; * Day 1 - We start on the high volume roads, called Priority 1s, in order to keep the greatest number of Calgarians travelling safely. Priority 1 roads, such as Crowchild and Glenmore Trail, carry more than 20,000 vehicles per day, and are cleared within 24 hours after the snow stops falling; * Day 2 - Up next are the Priority 2 roads which are plowed, sanded and salted within 48 hours after the snow has stopped. Priority 2 routes are the feeder roads that run in and out of communities, and typically carry 5,000 to 19,999 vehicles per day. Many of these are Transit bus routes; * Days 3-6 - On day three, we move into the residential areas. Residential roads with school and playground zones, hills and intersections are considered a Priority 3, while the remaining residential roads that have the lowest traffic volumes are considered to be a Priority 4; City crews maintain residential roads on days three through six by sanding, salting and flat-blading. Under our plan, plows will knock down ruts to 12cms, but will not remove snow from residential streets; * Day 7 - On the last day of the Seven Day Plan, crews will monitor the roads and respond to service requests for additional snow and ice control and get ready to do it all over again. - over 5 years ago #18-00249450
