Madison Declares a Snow Emergency
The City of Madison has declared a snow emergency. That means that alternate side parking restrictions will be in effect throughout the entire City of Madison including the downtown/isthmus snow emergency zone.
Madison residents are asked to remove all vehicles from the street if possible. Residents who must park on the street this evening should park on the EVEN house numbered side of the street. Vehicles parked on the street Monday evening January 22nd should be parked on the ODD house numbered side of the street. Violations of the alternate side parking rules are punishable by a fine of $20.
The Snow Emergency will remain in effect until at least 7 a.m. on Tuesday January 23rd.
Parking is also available in the cashiered sections of city-owned ramps in the downtown area. During a declared Snow Emergency you can park for no charge at the City ramps from 1a.m. until 7 a.m. If you leave after 7 a.m. you are liable for any parking charges from 7 a.m. until the time you leave. When parking in the ramps overnight, do not park on the top level so this area can be plowed. Be aware that vehicles stored in city ramps longer than 48 hours are subject to being ticketed and towed. Meters in lots and ramps are enforced 24 hours per day, 7 days a week.
