Residents are reminded that depositing snow on road allowances, including the roadway and/or ditches contravenes Township By-law Number 455-82, as well as The Highway Traffic Act which states “No person shall deposit snow or ice on a roadway without permission in writing so to do from the Ministry or the road authority responsible for the maintenance of the road.”

Please refrain from pushing/blowing or leaving snow on the roadway when clearing your driveway.  Snow becomes hard once it has been moved, and can create a hazard to the public using the road and also snow plow equipment and operators while removing snow from the road.  If a contractor clears your driveway, please advise them of this.

Sidewalks, the Township maintains the sidewalks anytime there is more than 8 cm of snow on them. Once the Township is aware of the sidewalks having more than 8 cm, the Township has 48 hours to clear them. Although we strive to maintain bare sidewalks that is not always possible and they may have a snow pack of less than 8 cm. See the Township website for more details.
