Winter Weather FAQs


Does the Public Works Department plow all streets in the Village?
No, the Village plows all the public residential and industrial park streets, but roads like Lake Street, Barrington Road and Irving Park Road are plowed by the State of Illinois, and roads like County Farm Road, Schick Road (east of County Farm), Army Trail, etc are plowed by DuPage County. Download the "Who Plows the Streets?" guide for more information.

How is it decided which streets get plowed first?
Main streets (also known as “arterial streets”) are plowed first as they move the most traffic. In the event of a blizzard or a snow so large that crews cannot keep up, they will fall back and only plow the main roads until the snow ends. Secondary roads, like a residential street with relatively low traffic, will be plowed as part of the normal operation, but will be secondary to arterial streets.
