Alder Heck’s Updates

Snow Emergency Nights of Feb. 9 and 10

February 9, 2020 5:02 PM

The City of Madison has declared a snow emergency on February 9, 2020. 
 
This means alternate side parking restrictions will be in effect this evening starting at 1:00 a.m. for the Snow Emergency Zone as well as the rest of the City of Madison. 
 
Citywide plowing operations are scheduled to begin at 10:00pm tonight, February 9. The initial phase of plowing operations take 12 to 16 hours to complete.
 
The snow emergency will remain in effect until at least 7 a.m. on February 11, 2020. 
 
All Madison residents are encouraged to choose off-street parking options for their vehicles and trailers starting today February 9 and lasting through February 11. Fewer obstacles in the road means plowing operations will be safer, faster, and more complete.  
 
Again, individuals who park their vehicle in the Snow Emergency Zone overnight must abide by alternate side parking rules during the declared emergency. Those who do not follow the alternate side parking rules may be ticketed and towed. 
 
Parking on the Street Tonight (Sunday 2/9/20 into early morning of Monday 2/10/20)
All residents who must park on the street tonight (the evening of February 9 into early morning of February 10) need to have their vehicles on the EVEN house numbered side of the street between the hours of 1am and 7am. 
 
Violations of the alternate side parking rules are punishable by a fine of $60 throughout the entire City of Madison.  Violators could also be towed.
 
Parking on the Street Tomorrow Night (Monday 2/10/20 into the early morning of Tuesday 2/11/20)
Vehicles parked on the tomorrow night (the evening of Monday, February 10 into early morning of Tuesday, February 11) should have their vehicles on the ODD house-numbered side of the street between the hours of 1am and 7am. 
 
Violations of the alternate side parking rules are punishable by a fine of $60 throughout the entire City of Madison.  Violators could also be towed.
 
Other Parking Information
Residents are reminded that all daytime and signed parking restrictions will be enforced.  That includes restrictions that ban parking on selected blocks in the downtown area and on the near east and near west sides.  Parkers should pay attention to all parking signs.

Parking will be available in the cashiered sections of city-owned ramps in the downtown area. During a declared snow emergency you can park for no charge at the City ramps from 9 p.m. until 7 a.m. If you enter before 9 p.m. or leave after 7 a.m. you are liable for any parking charges before 9 p.m. and from 7 a.m. until the time you leave. 

Be aware that vehicles stored in city ramps longer than 48 hours are subject to being ticketed and towed. Meters in lots and ramps are enforced 24 hours per day, 7 days a week.  Parking is also available at the Brittingham Park Shelter parking lot off of W. Washington Ave.
 
Why You Should Follow Alternate Side Parking
Following alternate side parking keeps the roads open, wide, and safe for all roadway users – cars, bicycles, emergency vehicles, refuse/recycling collection, and so on. 
 
Additional Information 
For additional plowing operations information and road condition expectations, check the Plow Update on the winter website, www.cityofmadison.com/winter
 
The winter website is also the source for more information about all things winter, including parking, salt usage, sidewalk shoveling, and winter recreation opportunities.
