Being a good neighbor goes a long way during winter weather. ❄️❤️

Shovel and salt the sidewalks outside your home or business to keep them safe.
Clean the snow off your car’s roof before driving so it doesn’t blow onto others. 🚗❄️

If you get stuck on the highway during winter weather, your safety comes first. ❄️🚗

If you can, move your vehicle to the shoulder and turn your blinkers on so others can see you. Call 911 for help and stay inside your car until responders arrive.

Salt Boxes are out across the city to help you stay safe through winter weather. ❄️🧂

But sometimes the Salt Boxes need help too.
If you see one that’s damaged or empty, report it to 311 so we can refill or repair it.

Your reports help us keep sidewalks safer for everyone.

Be a good neighbor and don’t leave debris in parking spaces.

It’s hazardous to our crews who are trying to clear the streets
Don't be a snitch.
If you see objects left out in a parking space, report them to 311 as debris in the roadway so crews can address it.

Let’s keep our streets clear and safe for everyone.

Be a good neighbor this winter. 🚗❄️

After a snowstorm, we know parking can be tough. But unless a space is officially marked, you cannot reserve it. Items placed in the street to “save” a parking spot create hazards and block access.

Before you go, clean all the snow off your roof, windows, and hood. 🧹❄️

Some streets are narrow; some streets are steep. ❄️

Salt Boxes are placed in these areas so neighbors can spread salt on the roadway during winter weather. If you live near one, you’re welcome to use the salt to help keep those tricky blocks safer for everyone.
