Parking Ban In Cranston, Trash Delay For Snowstorm
No snow day for students: all Cranston public schools are using distance learning until after the holiday break.
CRANSTON, RI — A parking ban has been declared in Cranston ahead of a significant snowstorm expected to hit the state starting Wednesday night.
It's bad news for kids looking for a snow day, however, since Cranston public schools shifted to fully distanced learning on Dec. 10, lasting through the new year.
"In true 2020 fashion, I couldn’t finish out my term as Mayor without getting us through one more snowmageddon...Bring it on!" Mayor Allan Fung wrote on Twitter.
