About JPL Services

Evening rush along Evergreen Way is where a fast-moving snow shower turns into real trouble first, with the wide lots around the Everett Mall district filling with slush right as commuters are trying to get home. JPL Services times its snow removal work to that stretch of the evening, plowing the retail lots and access drives along the arterial before the slush has a chance to refreeze once traffic thins out after dark. Wide, flat commercial pavement holds meltwater differently than a sloped residential street, and this stretch of south Everett is mostly that kind of ground. The crew treats the lot edges and entrances first, since that's where cars slow down and the ice does the most damage to an evening commute. Clearing Evergreen Way well, on an evening like that, means racing the clock as much as the weather.
