Snow’s arrived in Kansas City and the streets may be hard to maneuver for commuters. The city has an extensive plan for clearing the streets in a timely manner, and now’s the real test.
We broke down which streets the city prioritizes when plowing. But the real question is always, when will that plow get to you? You can track it.
HOW CAN I SEE WHAT STREETS ARE CLEARED?
This Kansas City map tells you when a plow last went through a street. The colors on each street indicate the last time a snowplow cleared the road.
Each color represents the last time a snowplow drove through a street. You can zoom in on the map to find your area and see how recently it’s been plowed.
THE CITY FORGOT MY STREET. WHAT DO I DO?
Report it to the city. You can either use the myKCMO app on your phone to report streets that need plowing, call 311 or go to the KCMO website and select “snow” as the issue. The city asks that you wait 24 hours after the snow has stopped before reporting.
