City street crews began applying brine to city-owned parking lots and bridges Monday morning and will continue treating roads through Wednesday. City crews will be on standby throughout the winter storm. 

Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will likely become slick and hazardous. Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact Wednesday morning commutes. Residents are encouraged to stay off the roads and if travel is necessary, be extra cautious while driving. Driving at posted speeds could be extremely dangerous when snow and ice are on the road. Vehicles may lose traction during these conditions which could result in a serious accident.
