Local conditions
Conditions vary block by block in Bismarck, which is why routes are planned locally, not generically.
As the state capital on the Missouri River, Bismarck gets slightly more shelter from the river bluffs than the wide-open valley cities to the east, but its snow-day count is still among the highest recorded here because clipper systems track directly across central North Dakota. The city's strict ban on depositing shoveled or plowed snow back into the street, backed by fines up to $1,500, reflects how quickly windrows can become a driving hazard on the Expressway.
We regularly service routes near I-94, I-194 (Bismarck Expressway), US-83, ND-810.
