PARKING ON BROADWAY AND 24TH
Great Bend, Ks, February 14, 2025- Please be advised that with the potential weather Monday night February 17th and into Tuesday February 18th, we are kindly asking individuals to not park on the streets that live on:
โ€ข Broadway between Main Street and Cherry Lane
โ€ข 24th Street between Main Street and McKinley
We will again try this approach to snow removal in these areas with the hope this will allow crews to clear snow more effectively and safely. We are attempting to minimize the number of driveways that will be blocked due to our removal efforts. As is during the main operations of removal we will not be opening driveways. We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our streets clear and safe.
Please be attentive as crew members work in the clearing of snow and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and would like to thank you again for your patience.
If you have any questions or concerns, contact Jason Cauley, Director of Public Works, 620.793.4150.
