TOWN OF CARY OFFICIALS DEAL WITH SNOW IMPACTS

CARY, NC – Town of Cary crews are working today to clear treacherous roadways. More than a dozen crews are sanding, salting, and plowing hundreds of miles of thoroughfares, major intersections, and collector streets. The Town will also work in subdivisions, but only after handling the major roadways. Town crews will not, however, be clearing cul-de-sacs. Officials strongly advise citizens to not drive today unless absolutely necessary.

Town offices are open today. However, citizens are encouraged to try to handle their Town business via the Internet at www.townofcary.org or by telephone.

PLEASE DO NOT CALL 9-1-1 UNLESS YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY POSING AN IMMEDIATE THREAT TO LIFE, HEALTH, OR PROPERTY. All non-emergency snow calls should be placed to 469-4090.
