(KNZA)--With the expected forecast, the City of Hiawatha would like to remind city residents that the priority of the street crews is the removal of snow from the streets. Please have vehicles removed from the snow routes for crews to completely clean streets for safe travels.

Street crews will not be clearing snow from commercial and residential alleyways other than those associated with emergency services and located behind the Hiawatha LEC and Fire Department, located adjacent to the Brown Co.

(c) Seventh Street from Delaware Street to Utah Street;

(d) Delaware Street between Sixth Street and Seventh Street;

(f) First Street between the north city limits and the south city limits.

(g) Miami Street from First Street to Twelfth Street

(h) Iowa Street from First Street to Hopi Drive

(i) Twelfth Street from U.S. 36 Highway to Oregon Street

All other streets will be cleared in a timely manner after ensuring that the snow routes have been cleared.
