Public Safety Reminder

If we receive the forecasted amount of snow, there are limitations to the assistance emergency services can provide. In the event a tow ban is put into place, vehicles that become stuck or disabled will need to remain where they are until conditions improve and it is safe for tow operators to respond.

Our Outagamie County Highway Department crews will be working tirelessly to keep roads passable and they are not able to assist with moving or removing vehicles during the storm.  As such, the Highway Department will be closed to the public on Monday, March 16, because all available resources will be directed towards clearing the roads during this time.

Please:

  • Avoid unnecessary travel
  • Prepare for hazardous road conditions
  • Plan for the possibility of power outages

Also, a quick reminder to shovel smart. Spring snow is heavy and overexertion while shoveling can lead to medical emergencies. When conditions are hazardous, response times may be longer than usual, so take your time and take breaks.

A little planning now can go a long way in keeping everyone safe — including the people out plowing roads and responding to emergencies.
