Very good question. That is odd. I'll look into it for you.

I live in Capitol Hill and there are snow route signs on 17th ave and 18th ave between 14th st and 15th st. All the people living there moved their cars around the neighborhood last weekend when the ban went into play (and did a ####ty job of doing so reducing available street parking for everyone else, but that's a story for another day) but the streets were never actually cleared.
Do you know why those particular streets would be snow routes? It seems strange given they arent major routes or access roads or anything, just typical residential streets. They aren't connected to any other roads either (that is, all access to the roads would be through roads that aren't being cleared). At any rate, they weren't cleared anyway, but the cars had to move and it screwed up street parking for the weekend which would have been fine I guess if the plows had come, but they never did!
