Stay Ahead of Winter Weather: Explore North Bend’s Updated 2024 Snowplow Route Map

Snoqualmie, WALocal News

The City of North Bend is preparing for winter with an improved operations plan from its Public Works Department for the 2024 snowy months. The department's four snowplows are ready to keep roads safe and accessible. The updated 2024/2025 Snowplow Route Map details priority routes for plowing, informing residents about which areas will be cleared first during storms. Importantly, the city has opted for environmentally friendly sand and salt mixtures at key locations instead of chemical anti-icers, protecting the quality of local drinking water. This proactive strategy enhances road safety and demonstrates the city’s commitment to environmental stewardship.

As North Bend anticipates winter weather challenges, the community is encouraged to prepare for safe navigation during snowy months by engaging with the snowplow route map and understanding the city’s strategies.
