Snow Plow Heads Up 1.27.12


New Online Tool for

Neighborhood Snow Plowing Status

Despite the spring-like temperatures Northern Virginia has experienced recently, it is still winter and VDOT has unveiled a new online tool to help northern Virginia residents stay informed about the snow plowing status of their neighborhoods.

Once it snows at least two inches, the new webpage http://novasnowplowing.virginia.gov) will be activated and residents can find out the status of plowing in Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William county neighborhoods.

Plowing status will be available for neighborhoods based on 600 "snow maps" of northern Virginia streets. These are the maps users will view and be able to find out whether crews are plowing, have plowed or have not started a particular snow map. Street-by-street progress is not shown.

This is a test run. VDOT welcomes public feedback and promises to make adjustments to make the site as user-friendly as possible.
