NEWPORT, R.I. — Better find a driveway, a garage, NEWPORT, R.I. — Better find a driveway, a garage, or a city lot — because Newport is clearing the streets. City officials issued a mandatory parking ban for Saturday, Feb. 7, running from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., as winter storm conditions are expected to hit the Ocean State. Residents are being urged to move vehicles off-street to help snowplows do their job — and to avoid getting towed. Free parking will be available during the ban at the Gateway Center, Mary Street, and Touro Street parking lots. City leaders are also encouraging residents to coordinate with neighbors to use private driveways where possible. Officials say clearing cars from the roads isn’t just about snow removal — it also helps protect vehicles from damage and keeps plow operators safe as they work to keep streets passable. 🚨 Tow Zone Streets
Any vehicles parked on the following streets 30 minutes after the ban begins may be subject to towing: Annandale Road; Bellevue Avenue (Kay Street to Bowery Street); Bedlow Avenue; Bliss Road; Broadway; Coggeshall Avenue; East Bowery Street; Farewell Street; Friendship Street; Gibbs Avenue; Gould Street; Kay Street; Powell Avenue; Spring Street; Summer Street; Thames Street; Third Street; Warner Street; Washington Street; Washington Square; West Marlboro Street; West Narragansett Avenue; William Street; and Van Zandt Avenue from J.T. Connell Memorial Road East to Malbone Road. 🧹 Shovel Up After the Storm
Once the snow stops, property owners will have five hours to clear sidewalks adjacent to their buildings. City officials reminded residents that Newport’s walkable layout means keeping sidewalks clear is a shared responsibility — especially for pedestrian safety. For storm updates and snow response information, residents can visit CityofNewport.com/Snow. Bottom line: Move it, or lose it — to the tow truck. ❄️🚔 #newportri #newportbuzz
