Colorado Springs street crews are also on a level one call-out. A Level One, Full Callout covers 45 designated snow routes, comprised of approximately 2,200 lane miles of the city street system. These primary and secondary routes include all major roads, as well as streets leading to hospitals, schools, major places of employment, and key collector streets entering residential areas. During this event, city crews will be applying anti-skid material and/or salt, and plowing these routes.
