Snow removal in the unincorporated areas                

Johnson County Public Works plows roads in unincorporated areas of the county. They will work 12-hour shifts, plowing and treating unincorporated Johnson County roads as necessary. Crews have been actively addressing road conditions since the onset of this storm, prioritizing public safety and road accessibility.  

We encourage residents to avoid driving if possible. It will take some time to clear the roadways, and the reduced traffic allows Public Works to move more quickly, helping everyone stay safe.
