The North Platte 911 Center has issued a Snow Emergency effective at 6:00 PM on Wednesday February 20.

A Snow Emergency dictates that all vehicles and trailers parked on a snow emergency route, as marked by the small red, white, and blue signs, are to be removed from these routes or risk being ticketed and possibly towed by the North Platte Police Department.

The objective is to keep all Emergency Snow Routes open to travel and as dry as possible.  These vital transportation links were selected so that emergency vehicles can reach all parts of the city and our hospital.
