According to Detroit's Director of Public Works, residential neighborhoods will only be plowed if the city receives six or more inches of snow.
With anything less, plows will only focus on clearing major roads.
Detroit residents say this is a concern because as the snow hit roads, things become messy, especially on the side streets.
"I have a lot of concerns.
I use the busses and travel the streets every day," Detroiter Zakiyyah Leary said.
Leary knows how hard it can be to navigate the snow-covered roads and when 7 Action News broke the news to her that the city will only be plowing side streets if six or more inches of snow falls, she was in disbelief.
"[I] think that's horrible.
If there's snow, plow everywhere," she said.
