Broomfield Storm Response
🌨️ The City and County of Broomfield starts plowing operations as soon as the snow starts falling, and continues after it stops. The first priority is to clear major roadways, then secondary roadways to keep the most traveled routes passable through the duration of the storm. Maps of priority routes and additional information can be found on the CCOB Street Maintenance web page. The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) is responsible for state highways such as US 287, 120th Avenue, and others.
Residential streets will be plowed based on the amount of snowfall.
- 4+ inches = one lane plowed
- 12+ inches = two lanes plowed
Please note, Broomfield aims to keep the roads passable, and does not perform snow removal services. Thanks for your patience with the resulting drifts on sidewalks and, in some cases, in front of driveways, although crews try to avoid these wherever possible. If you feel you need to report a snow or ice concern, the online form can be found on the CCOB Street Maintenance web page.
🚶🏾 Broomfield trails, such as primary school routes and other high-use sidewalks, are plowed as promptly as reasonably possible when there is one inch of accumulation on concrete surfaces, followed by recreational and less used sidewalks. The parking lots, sidewalks, and entrances leading to all City and County facilities will be cleared during any storm. In the event of an extended storm, concrete trail and parking lot snow and ice control will be completed multiple times throughout the day.
