Heavy snow is in the forecast for this weekend, which will likely impact road conditions throughout central Illinois. 

Clinton Police Chief Ben Lowers indicates that to stay safe, people should slow down, remain attentive while behind the wheel, and, as always, wear a seatbelt. Giving yourself extra time to get to your destination is a great way to ensure a safe arrival. 

The Chief notes that while they do not want to tow vehicles, especially in the snow, parked vehicles in violation of the snow route ordinance will be subject to citations and the possibility of being towed. 

Those interested in finding out more information on snow routes can reference City Ordinance 6-2-9 on the City's website. Signs are also posted along the routes to detail where and when parking is prohibited.
