County and city crews in Door and Kewaunee County are busy ensuring the roads and streets are safe for you to navigate after the snowstorm dropped several inches of snow in the past two days. Sturgeon Bay Municipal Director Mike Barker says the city’s plows completed the first pass Thursday morning with plans to make another sweep through the connecting streets and thoroughfares for the rest of the day. He explains how to deal with temperatures dropping to the single digits overnight and on Friday morning.
Barker notes that you can help to make the work of clearing and cleaning the snow off the streets by keeping your vehicles parked in driveways while the crews do their job. He adds that Sturgeon Bay crews did not utilize salt on the streets in the first clearing efforts since most of it would be scraped off and wasted. The City of Sturgeon Bay postponed Thursday's garbage pickup due to the storm and will pick it up on Friday.
