CONTRIBUTE: How Are The Roads Looking Out There, University Place?

Do your neighbor a favor and recommend what roads to take and what not to take.

It's nasty out there, University Place.

If you don't have to drive, don't.

But if you do, some roads are obviously better than others. I've opened this forum - I guess you can call it that - for us to share routes, tell what roads to avoid, etc.

Here's what Public Works Director Gary Cooper wrote to city leaders:

Staff have been doing everything we can on the roads, they are very slick with compact snow. We are expecting four more inches by 10:00 this morning with an additional 2"-4" throughout the night. While liquid deicer works well on ice, it does not perform well while snow is still falling.

Our Crew is concentrating on the Arterial hills- Bridgeport and 67th Ave. near Fred Meyer,  Cirque Drive between 67th Ave & Orchard, 40th Street between 67th & Bridgeport Way. We also are keeping 37th St. at the Fire Department plowed and sanded for emergency services.

We will continue to do our best but I do not expect any significant
improvement in road conditions until mid day tomorrow.
