 If
you want to report a street in need of ice or snow removal, please
call 24 hours after the snowfall has ended if our trucks have not
plowed or salted your street by then. To report a pothole, icy street,
or other problem with a city street, please call 412-255-2621.
Goals of
the Program:
The goal of the snow and ice control program is
to keep vehicular traffic moving on Pittsburgh's 1031 miles of streets
during and following snowstorms. To accomplish this goal, Public

salting equipment to ensure high efficiency. Our

Maintain passable roadways to Hospitals, Schools, Fire and Police
Stations.
