2026-2027 SNOW REMOVAL OPERATIONS

FREDERICKSBURG DISTRICT – FREDERICKSBURG RESIDENCY

The Fredericksburg Residency is gearing up for the 2026-2027 Snow Removal Season. This season, we will be utilizing the PLOW4VA ONLINE REGISTRATION FOR ALL CONTRACTORS. Open Enrollment will be available starting on July 6, 2026, at which time you may go online to register at plowsnow@vdot.virginia.gov.

The Fredericksburg Residency will be offering in-person appointment assistance during the months of July, August, and September. Your company may send a representative that is authorized to receive important contract and registration information for your firm.

Packets containing PLOW4VA guidelines, AVL (Automatic Vehicle Locator) and EVA information will be provided at these meetings. VDOT has a provider for the AVL devices, and each contractor will be responsible for ensuring the devices have been ordered, installed, and activated. VDOT will provide each Contractor with the AVL ordering portal information and installation instructions once their agreement is accepted by VDOT. We will also provide a question-and-answer period to assist you through this process. If you are a vendor that plans to sign-up multiple pieces of equipment for different Residency’s, we request that you enter an agreement for each Residency to ensure the correct equipment goes to the correct Residency.
