As we prepare for a winter storm early Sunday, January 25, working together makes a real difference. A few simple steps by residents can go a long way in helping the City of Asbury Park Public Works and emergency crews safely and efficiently clear streets, protect infrastructure, and keep neighborhoods moving during and after the storm.
Parking and Vehicle Safety
Working together on parking helps crews plow more quickly and reduces the risk of damage.
• When possible, park vehicles off street in driveways before and during the storm
• Move vehicles away from trees, utility poles, and other potential hazards
• Avoid parking in low-lying or flood-prone areas, especially near the lakes
After snowfall ends, please follow alternate side parking rules so plows can fully clear roadways and avoid the possibility of towing:
• Park on the odd-numbered side of the street first
• Move to the even-numbered side the following day
• On one-way streets, park on the left side in the direction of traffic flow
• Alternate side parking does not apply in posted snow emergency no-parking areas
Garbage and Recycling Placement
Small adjustments with containers help keep travel lanes open and crews working safely.
• Do not place garbage or recycling containers in the roadway
• Keep containers on the curb near the street to support plowing operations and safe parking during the storm
