🚨 WINTER PARKING REMINDER – VILLAGE OF GREENWICH 🚨

The Cambridge-Greenwich Police Department is reminding residents that winter parking restrictions are now in effect due to snowfall.

Pursuant to Village of Greenwich Local Law #1 of 2002, street parking is prohibited for 24 hours after the accumulation of 1 inch or more of snow.
• The restriction begins once 1 inch of snow has accumulated — not at midnight.
• If additional snowfall occurs during that 24-hour period, the clock resets for another 24 hours.

These restrictions are necessary to allow the Department of Public Works to safely and efficiently clear village streets and to ensure access for emergency vehicles.

🚗 Residents are asked to remove all vehicles from village streets as soon as possible.
Vehicles left parked on the street during the restriction period may be subject to ticketing or towing.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our roads safe for everyone.
