With the forecast of 3 to 6 inches of snow predicted for our area, the Prince George’s County Department of Public Works and Transportation (DPW&T) will deploy crews early Tuesday morning for a full snow removal operation.
Employees from DPW&T, the Department of Environmental Resources, Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement, and the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission will be deployed to monitor, plow and treat the roadways. The crews will concentrate on the primary and major collector roads first and then will move into the residential areas to plow the roadways.”
The morning and evening commute may be impacted by the snow. Motorists are asked to remember these safety tips:
- Add extra time for travel;
- Stay alert and drive carefully; and
- Use caution when driving over bridges and when entering intersections.
To assist in our snow removal efforts, please remind the residents in your community to park on the even-numbered sides of the streets or in their driveways. We are also asking residents to shovel their driveways after plowing has occurred on their streets and to remove snow/ice from the sidewalks abutting their homes and businesses.
Residents are encouraged to wait 12 hours after the precipitation has stopped and call CountyClick at 311, the Snow Information Center at 301-350-0500 or go to the Snow Request Form to report snow conditions on their street.
DPW&T appreciates your assistance and thanks you for your participation in the Community Partners Program.
