The City Snow Center wants to notify residents that they are not engaging in a full-scale plowing effort in residential areas in the wake of the recent storm. However, street crews will be plowing in some residential areas along the perimeter of the city limits and in some newer developments where drifts are more likely to occur.

The piles of snow are very dangerous trying to pull out through the intersection.
If people would replace their bald tires or put snow tires on the driven wheels of their cars, there wouldn't be so much complaining. I would love to have some sort of 4 wheel drive vehicle for winter but just cant see spending the extra cash to just let it sit durring decent weather (especially when you pay the outragous registration fees in this city), and with gas breaking record high prices I can't justify using a 4 wheel drive as a primary vehicle. Don't even get me started with global warming wakos.
why is it we as residents have so long to get our sidewalks shoveled but yet businesses have no rule i went by 66th and cotner Monday and the kids had to jump over the snow by the curbs to even be able to cross the roads!!!!! Talk about a safety hazzard?
You know, I have lived in many different cities of varying sizes and not one can do a good enough job to make everyone happy. There are different obstacles for different cities and different budgets. The city does what it can witht he resources it has. Deal with it.
I have no complaints of the snow removal. They can only do so much and I think they are going a great job. Thank you!
What is so bad about the streets? I have had no problem getting around. Thanks to all the people who put their lives on hold while they clean the streets for the rest of us.
i personally think that the lincoln snow removal system SUCKS!!!! they can't expect us to put our lives on hold for 3 days when people have work and stuff to do because they don't have an efficient plowing system. its ridiculous.
