6 p.m.
We will be bringing in a crew early to treat roads before snowfall is expected to start Sunday morning. With these low temperatures, treatment may not be very effective. We can assure you that there will be salt on the roads, but like we’ve seen all week, it’s not going to work as usual.
Treatment will still be effective but if areas, like residential streets, aren’t getting as much traffic, the salt won’t break up the snow as much. And with these low temperatures, refreezing can occur.
Our crews will continue doing what they’re known for — trying their best to make Lenexa roads clean and safe.

If, after 48 hours, your street was missed, please report it through our Lenexa 311 service application. You can log your request and track its progress as it is completed.
