Impacts and Preparedness Actions:

• Plan on slippery road conditions. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions will likely impact the afternoon commute.
• With the expected snow, help the Gurnee Public Works Department help you by keeping in mind the following:
  •  Residents and businesses are encouraged to clear driveway aprons, sidewalks and mailboxes by placing the snow onto your property or the adjacent parkway.
  • Right-of-Way Items – Please remove portable basketball hoops, benches and decor from the street right-of-way.
  • Hydrants – Clear the snow and ice three feet around all sides of hydrants to provide access. This simple step could save lives.
  • Street Parking – After 2 inches of snow, please park your vehicle off of the street so plows can effectively and safely remove snow.
  • In addition, shoveling, blowing or plowing snow into the street creates hazardous driving conditions, negates the effort of our snowplowing operations and is prohibited by law.
