"So people can park on the street throughout the winter. That’s the biggest challenge.”

Morreim said the extreme cold Friday morning was another challenge crews have had to face this week.

It can lead to problems with equipment and with some of the materials they use to keep the roads safe.

The goal is to have most roads cleared by the end of the day Friday, but the work still isn’t done.

“We have a night crew and a weekend crew," Morreim said. "And we will go in and do pushbacks - which we call them pushbacks when cars move with the pile of snow around them.

"We go in after and push that back and clean it up. So we will be doing a lot of that."

Crews will also go back out to clean sidewalks and steps around the neighborhoods.

Residents can call 651-266-9700 if they have any concerns about the road or sidewalk conditions in their neighborhood.

“Someone will answer all the time so you will get a person," Morreim said. "And they can answer any questions or take any complaints that you have. Any icing complaints or plowing complaints…we will take care of those."
