Snow Plowing

Alternate Side Parking During Snow Removal

The Village Code requires residents to follow alternate side street parking regulations during snow events when two inches or more of snowfall has accumulated. This means that on even-numbered days of the month, between the hours of 8:30 am to 3:30 pm Monday through Friday motor vehicles may only be parked on the side of the street with even numbered addresses and on odd-numbered days of the month, between the hours of 8:30 am to 3:30 pm Monday through Friday motor vehicles may only be parked on the side of the street with odd-numbered addresses. Alternate side parking is not in effect during weekends or major holidays. Alternate side parking does not include Pratt Avenue which is a designated snow emergency route. After 2inches of snowfall no parking is permitted on Pratt Avenue.

Snow and Ice Removal Program

The Village of Lincolnwood is responsible for 75 lane miles of roads to plow during inclement weather. To efficiently manage this operation, the snow removal plan divides the community into 10 plow routes. The goal of the Village's snow removal plan is to have all of the Village-owned streets cleared within eight hours of a four to six-inch snowfall event.
