A two-week round of residential snow clearing began yesterday, along with parking bans on permanent snow routes.

Residential snow clearing begins when activated by the City with consideration of snow accumulations and upcoming weather conditions. It occurs in two-week rotations and is completed by contracted snow removal crews from Monday to Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Residential snow clearing occurs on weekdays in the following neighbourhoods:

  • Monday: Crystal Heights, Crystal Landing, Hillside, Ivy Lake Estates, Mountview, Summit, and VLA/Montrose.
  • Tuesday: Country Club Estates, Countryside North and South, Country Club West, Patterson and South Patterson, Southview, and Signature Falls.
  • Wednesday: Avondale, Cobblestone, College Park, Fieldbrook, Highland Park, Riverstone, Smith, and Swanavon.
  • Thursday: Mission Heights, O’Brien Lake, Pinnacle Ridge, Stone Ridge, and Westpointe.
  • Friday: Arbour Hills, Copperwood, Crystal Lake Estates, Crystal Ridge, Gateway, Lakeland, Northridge, and Royal Oaks.

If a neighbourhood is not completed in week one of the rotation, crews will return in week-two to complete the area.

City crews continue to plow and sand priority 1, 2, and 3 routes.
