A street near mine was just plowed. Does that mean my street will be next?

The city plows and treats streets in priority order. If the street that was just plowed is at the same priority as yours, it is likely that your street will be plowed soon. Factors such as crew shift changes, equipment maintenance, and refueling may mean that there will be a delay before crews reach your street. If the first street was a higher priority (e.g. a primary route), the crews may move to another street of the same priority level.
