Some Kansas City, Kansas, residents say their frustrations are piling as high as the snow they’re seeing in their neighborhoods from this weekend’s blizzard.
Tuesday was the first day public works employees with the Unified Government of Wyandotte County were able to fully plow neighborhood routes.
The prioritization of routes is broken down into three levels: 34 hot routes, 34 secondary routes, and 131 neighborhood routes. Click here for a map .
Hot routes are always first and include the highest traffic routes, major collector streets and hills. They also prioritize emergency response facilities like hospitals, police stations and fire stations.
Secondary routes are next, which include collector routes (subdivision streets) and streets servicing schools.
Lastly, there are neighborhood routes, which include local routes and residential streets.
