Snow removal

The placing or pushing of snow or ice onto roadways or cleared sidewalks will obstruct or encumber vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Do Not push snow across roadways because the trail of snow does turn to ice. The Town's Obstruction, Encumbering or Fouling of Highways By-law 2019-0008 prohibits such action.

Improper snow and ice clearing can be a serious hazard to motorists and pedestrians. Your co-operation is requested. Please comply with the requirements of this By-law.

Be alert for snow plows and stay back at least 15 meters behind the trucks. Please avoid parking on streets during snowstorms to assist Public Works staff with winter control. Residents who do park their vehicles in a way that interferes with the Town’s snow clearing or road maintenance operations may receive a parking violation.

For further information please contact the Municipal Law Enforcement Coordinator at 905-873-2600, ext. 2330.
