The city of Beverly, Massachusetts has issued a snow emergency parking ban ahead of an expected 2 to 4 inches of snow on Tuesday night. The ban will be in effect from 10 p.m. on Tuesday until 7 a.m. on Wednesday morning, as the town has already seen over 3 feet of snow in recent weeks, leaving little space to put additional snow.

Why it matters

Beverly's snow emergency parking ban is a common measure taken by cities to ensure streets can be properly plowed and cleared during major winter storms. This helps maintain public safety and access for emergency vehicles, while also preventing vehicles from being towed and ticketed.

The details

The snow emergency parking ban means all vehicles parked on city streets in Beverly will be subject to ticketing and towing. This allows the city's public works department to efficiently clear the roads of snow and ice accumulation.

• The snow emergency parking ban will be in effect from 10 p.m. on Tuesday, February 10, 2026 until 7 a.m. on Wednesday, February 11, 2026.
