UPDATE:

Parking restrictions have been lifted in Idaho Falls as of Thursday, Feb. 4.

ORIGINAL STORY:

The following is a news release from the city of Idaho Falls.

IDAHO FALLS — The Idaho Falls Street Department began plowing major roads at 4 a.m. Wednesday morning following a winter storm that blanketed Idaho Falls with snow during the night.

The recent accumulation of snow has exceeded two inches, which qualifies as a snow event according to the City’s Snow and Ice Control Policies and Procedures Manual. As a result, parking restrictions are in place from now until the city issues another notice lifting them.

Vehicles parked on streets after a snow event is called are subject to ticketing and relocation of the vehicle in accordance with snow removal parking restrictions.

SNOW REMOVAL SCHEDULE

ZONE B

Zone B is currently being plowed and will continue to be plowed until completion. Zone B is the majority of the city and is colored yellow on the ZONE MAP.

DOWNTOWN

Downtown will be plowed during the early morning hours of Thursday, February 4 from midnight to 7 a.m. to minimize the impact on businesses. Downtown is colored gray on the ZONE MAP.
