Snow Emergencies

Pursuant to Section 195-41 of the Tredyffrin Township Codebook of Ordinances, the Township is authorized to declare a "snow emergency" if the weather conditions warrant it. This will assist in snow removal and the safe passage of emergency vehicles.

After any snow emergency is declared, it shall be unlawful, at any time during the continuance of the emergency, for any person, firm or corporation:

  • To park a motor vehicle or to allow that vehicle to remain parked anywhere on any snow emergency route (list below) designated pursuant to this article;
  • To drive any vehicle on any such snow emergency route unless that vehicle is equipped with snow tires, chains, or other suitable traction devices; or
  • To drive any vehicle which then becomes stuck on any snow emergency route during a snow emergency because of or related to the failure of that vehicle to be equipped with snow tires, chains, or other suitable traction devices.
