While on vacation with your vehicle or after relocating to the State of New York, you will have to worry about winter parking in New York as alternate side parking and street cleaning regulations will be suspended during a snow emergency making spots harder to find as these will be taken up by locals who prepared for storms and are familiar on where to park.

As for winter parking, you will need to avoid parking at all times on any of the 250 snow emergency routes in New York as if a snow storm hits the New York area by surprise, you may discover your vehicle later on with a parking ticket or two for failing to move it in time and will have to waste precious time later on to find parking at alternate areas along with making time to appear in court if you plan to fight the tickets at Finance Business Centers. In some instances, your vehicle will qualify for the city’s valet service and will be towed at your expense to one of four (4) in impound lots in New York City.

By knowing and following the rules, you can help reduce black ice & manhole fires in New York by helping the city to be able to clear the streets quickly and safely.
