Winter service concept adopted for the 2022/2023 season
At its meeting today, the City Council approved the current winter service concept of the City of Chemnitz with its extensive annexes on the street directory, care matrix and emergency plan for the coming season. It is valid for the period from 1 November 2022 to 31 March 2023.
Every year, the City Council adopts the winter road maintenance concept for the planning, organisation and implementation of winter road maintenance in the City of Chemnitz for the current winter season.
The present document has been retained in its system. Compared to the previous year, only editorial changes have been made and statistical values and the list of roads have been updated.
As in previous years, the carriageways of public roads in the city of Chemnitz have been categorised into maintenance levels 1 to 4. In accordance with the concept, the winter road maintenance service operates 24 hours a day on level 1 carriageways. This includes the carriageways of federal, state and district roads within the city limits, carriageways used by local public transport bus services, main collector and main access roads as well as carriageways leading to fire stations, hospitals and important utilities and commercial sites. Level 2 carriageways are cleared of snow and ice for 16 hours a day.
