The City Plows can’t be everywhere at the same time so when the snow is falling it is very important to keep Emergency routes and primary roads open and passable. We start with Third St, and Fifth St. from the hospital to Broadway. That gives access to the hospital from Broadway. Broadway is an east west emergency route maintained by the state highway department.

 The city crews would then clear Brumfield Ave, the Brumfield over pass, Main St and the South Main overpass this gives emergency crews two east west routes and a north south route with an overpass in case a train is on the tracks. Also notice that the Princeton Fire Station is located on an east west emergency route.

 The next emergency route to be cleared would be Spring Street from Broadway to Main St, this gives access to the south west side of town. At the same time the crews plow Spring St. they would continue east on Mulberry to give the south end better access to an emergency routes. 

 As the snow is falling it is important to keep the above-mentioned routes open and passable. As the snow lets up other primary routes and secondary roads with hills and dangerous curves would come next, and as soon as possible the city crews would start on all secondary roads and widening primary roads. (Plowing the snow farther off the roads making the plowed roads wider.) 

 As city crews plow snow off streets it is impossible to not plow snow into driveway entrances. It would not be feasible to lift the plow at every driveway. We apologize for any inconvenience.
