BG residents asked to not park on streets this weekend

In anticipation of snow accumulation well in excess of two inches, residents are asked to refrain from parking on streets this weekend – Jan. 18-20. 

A snow emergency being declared in the City of Bowling Green is imminent for Saturday, Jan. 19, based on current storm forecasts.  Keeping streets free and clear of parked vehicles is a tremendous help in the snow removal process, allowing the entire street to be cleared and treated.

If two inches of snow is received, a snow emergency may be declared, implementing parking restrictions.  As a reminder, if a snow emergency is declared between the hours of 7 a.m. and 9 p.m., vehicles must be removed from snow streets within two hours of the declaration.  If a snow emergency is declared after 9 p.m., vehicles must be removed by 9 the following morning.

Residents are encouraged to monitor the city’s website, local news, or follow the city on social media such as Facebook (@cityofbg) and Twitter (@cityofbg).
