Downtowners, I’m sure you noticed the snow and that only half of our streets are plowed, make sure to move your cars to the ODD side of the street tonight so they can do the other half!
Snow Emergency Continues Until 7 a.m. Tuesday
A snow emergency remains in effect for the entire City of Madison until 7 a.m. Tuesday February 3rd. Residents are asked to keep their vehicles off the street today and tonight if possible. If you must park on the street this evening you should park on the ODD house numbered side of the street. Details on winter parking restrictions are available at www.cityofmadison.com/winter. Violations of the alternate side parking restrictions during a snow emergency are punishable by a $60 fine.
Parking is 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.
When parking in the ramps overnight, do not park on the top level so this area can be plowed. 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 AV.
Residents can sign up to receive text and/or email alerts whenever a snow emergency is declared at the city’s web site www.cityofmadison.com/winter. You will also get storm and plowing updates at the site or by calling 261-9111.
