COUNCIL ACTION FORM
Item # t;? 1
Date: June 22, 1993
SUBJECT: Revising the Snow Route Map
BACKGROUND:
In June, 1993, Cy-Ride removed several collector and local streets from
their routes when they changed to the new bus route system. Local
streets that were removed from the system include:
Roosevelt Avenue loth Street to 16th Street
10th Street Grand Avenue to Roosevelt Avenue
Kellogg Avenue 20th Street to 28th Street
28th Street Kellogg Avenue to Grand Avenue
With this change, snow designations should also be removed from these
local streets to be consistent with past City practices. Snow routes have
been solely placed on arterial and collector streets with heavy traffic
volumes, and on streets with bus routes. This measure has been neces-
sary to ensure that these streets are cleared of snow for accommodating
heavy traffic flows and bus service. It's been the City's policy not to
designate snow routes on streets that do not meet this criteria.
By removing snow route designations on these streets, the Public Works
crews will be able to provide a better level of service on other streets
with snow route designations.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Remove snow route designation on the listed local streets due to the
bus route changes.
2. Do nothing.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended by the City Manager that the City Council adopt alter-
native number 1 above, thereby removing snow route designations on the
listed streets due to the bus route changes
