After its previous plan proved controversial, the city has updated its snow-clearing operational plan for the upcoming winter season.
The city announced in November it would be reducing snow-clearing services overall due to financial constraints but would attempt to reconfigure its planning to improve overnight clearing.
Transportation Commissioner Michael Hugenholtz says they aren’t likely to announce any further changes this far into the year.
“I think we need to get into the winter season, see how we do relative to our service level standards and watch that over a number of storms,” he said.
