Murfreesboro Solid Waste may have limited collection service Friday, Jan. 10, starting collection at 5 a.m. to collect as much garbage as possible before conditions deteriorate with the goal of completing Friday's collection.

Murfreesboro Transit schedules may be affected Friday, Jan. 10, and Saturday Jan. 11, due to inclement weather. Murfreesboro Transit does not operate during heavy snow and hazardous road conditions. Riders should make preparations for other modes of transportation.

The City Street Department provides ice and snow removal on State Routes within City limits under contract to TDOT as well as City streets and thoroughfares. If motorists see hazardous street conditions that need attention, please call 615-893-4380. Subdivision City streets are typically not salted or plowed due to limited equipment and personnel resources as crews focus on primary thoroughfares.

Motorists are urged to "Take It Slow" in ice and snow. If you are involved in a minor vehicle crash without injuries, the Murfreesboro Police Department asks you to move your vehicle out of the roadway, if possible, to avoid secondary crashes.
