When snow and ice threaten public safety the Public Service Dept.
responds immediately. The snow removal plan prioritizes all streets
within the city limits giving first priority to major thoroughfares
and hospital areas. The second priority is the major collector streets
that feed into the major arterial routes plus trouble spots such as
hills and dangerous intersections. When these streets are passable
the next focus is the minor collector streets and finally neighborhood
streets.
If you need to make a request concerning a road outside the city limits,
but inside Knox County, dial 865-215-5825.
The interstate system is cleared by the Tennessee Dept. of Transportation
at 865-594-9101.
