Snow Routes

Purdue University's established snow routes on the West Lafayette campus help facilitate snow removal. If action is required, the university will notify the campus and community, including timelines and information on removing vehicles from on-street parking to temporary alternate locations. Failure to remove a vehicle from a snow route when required could result in the vehicle being ticketed and/or towed at the owner’s expense. 

A map of the West Lafayette Campus Snow Routes is available below.
