Message from the Mayor
Plowing snow from Salem's 130 miles of public streets is a formidable task. It involves coordination of private and publicly owned plows, mechanics, dispatchers and route supervisors to inspect and control plowing activities and other support personnel. The hours can be extraordi-narily long, with operations conducted during the most severe weather and driving conditions. We realize that in an operation of such size and complexity there are bound to be complaints or requests for additional service.
Since it may take several hours for plows to make their way to your street, please try to be patient and avoid early calls for service during a storm. If you believe that a request for service is warranted and sufficient time has elapsed for us to have responded, please call 978-744-3302. This number will be staffed or your call will be recorded and the information relayed to our supervisors for action.
Please understand that calling 978-744-3302 is the FASTEST WAY to get a service request resolved.
Remember, driving in winter snowstorms should be avoided whenever possible. In every winter storm, there are times when road conditions are hazardous despite everyone's best efforts. Our work to restore safe road conditions is completed more quickly and more efficiently when roads are free of traffic and illegally parked vehicles.
Thank You,
Kimberley Driscoll, Mayor
