In case of a snowstorm, the crew has a priority system in place for plowing and de-icing streets. Primary arterial streets will be cleared first, followed by secondary and auxiliary routes. The time it takes to clear these routes will depend on the intensity of the storm and amount of snow or ice accumulation.
