WEST JORDAN — Snowplow drivers and police are making a plea for people to move their cars off of the road. In West Jordan, police officers spent the day Thursday sending that message in person — with warnings and tickets.Thursday evening, snowplows in West Jordan had been continuously circling the streets for more than 24 hours. "This whole storm from the start, we've been running nonstop," said Jerry Street, streets division superintendent for the city of West Jordan.
Jason Duffin, West Jordan public works operations manager, explained how it's just not worth the close calls. "We plowed them, but it doesn't always come off after it gets snow-packed," Duffin said. "And it takes multiple passes, and multiple trips out." Police are warning residents to get parked cars off the street so plows can clear the snow in West Jordan Thursday. They placed bright pink warning slips underneath windshield wipers and tucked them in between car doors. Monson said they want to educate the public first, so usually they only issue a warning.
It's a zero-tolerance policy. He said they can't take into consideration any circumstance of why any vehicle is parked on the road.
