The Department of Public Works is responsible for snow removal in the town's right-of-way. Arterial routes
receive first priority for salting, sanding, and plowing. Upon completion of clearing these routes, town crews will address all other streets in accordance with snow removal policy.
Residents can assist snow removal efforts as follows:
Parking Vehicles
Avoid parking vehicles on streets and cul-de-sacs when a snow storm is expected. This limits clearance for snow removal vehicles and makes snow removal difficult or impossible. Additionally, cars parked on snow emergency routes may be towed.
Sidewalks
Please clear sidewalks adjacent to your business or home. DPW does not remove snow from sidewalks unless they are near schools or critical road crossings. Please do not shovel sidewalks and driveways into the right-of-way, as this may result in additional snow being pushed back into driveway areas by snow plows. Do not block storm drains or fire hydrants.
The Public Works Operations Center is manned continuously during snowstorms. Contact us at (703) 435-6860 during snow removal operations.
Police Dispatch is available 24 hours a day at 703-435-6846
