City of West Lafayette, Indiana

Snow Plowing

The City of West Lafayette is committed to the safe control of snow and ice on public streets. The City is responsible for more than 86 miles of arterial, secondary, and residential streets. Factors having a significant impact on response time of city crews in salting and plowing streets and hauling snow include, but are not limited to, air temperature, pavement temperature, precipitation type (e.g., freezing rain, sleet, and snow), wind speed and direction, time of day, and the expected duration of the storm event.

The Street Department closely monitors conditions and pre-treats roads accordingly if the possibility of icy or snowy conditions exists. Plowing and/or salt operations begin once snow or ice starts accumulating on streets.
