Mapping NYC's Unplowed Streets

As New York City continues to dig out of the big blizzard, many residents are crying foul, saying snow on their streets hasn't been cleared fast enough. This refrain has been especially common in the outer boroughs.

Hard data on cleared streets is hard to come by because the Department of Sanitation—the agency responsible for snow removal— does not keep records of cleared streets. The agency only monitors which roads have been "salted" or "plowed," not which ones may have been covered in snow after plows came through.

Transportation Nation partner, WNYC has put a call out to listeners for reports of still-uncleared streets. To add yours to the map, text PLOW to 30644.
