Why does my driveway get “plowed in” when a snowplow passes my house?

The City’s snow plows are designed to push snow to the side of the roadway. This is the fastest and most efficient means available to remove snow from the street and open the street to traffic. When clearing your drive, do not pile snow on the side of oncoming traffic where it could be pushed back into the drive. Contact us at 630-260-2116 for more information.
