Why doesn’t my street get plowed when it snows?
The City’s snow plow crews will try to get every street (an uncommon practice in the Metro East), but our first priority is for emergency vehicle access routes and those which promote smooth traffic flow in high volume areas. So, first are arterial streets and their intersections, followed by collector streets and their intersections, and then residential streets concentrating on known trouble spots. With those cleared, residential streets are done as manpower and equipment are available. With 120 miles of streets to maintain, unfortunately, we miss a few during every snow event. Please report this to Public Works Operations at 624-4500, Ext. 5. After normal business hours (7 am to 3:30 pm, weekdays), please contact Police Dispatch at 618-624-4500, Ext. 8.
Who else plows snow from the streets in the City?
Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), St Clair County Department of Roads and Bridges, O’Fallon Township Road District and Caseyville Township Road District all provide services on various streets within O’Fallon and the areas adjacent to the City.
