Public encouraged to use alternate routes wherever possible
The Town declared parking bans for the purpose of snow removal on Friday, November 29 from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. along the following maintenance routes (weather and equipment dependent):
- Clark Avenue from Elma Street East to McRae Street
- Elma Street from Northridge Drive to Clarke Avenue
In accordance with Traffic Bylaw 10-10, sections 4.20, 4.21, and 4.22, all vehicles and obstructions must be removed from the road during the parking ban timeframe. While parking bans are in effect, public are encouraged to use alternate routes wherever possible to allow for road crews to work efficiently and safely. All other services such as waste collection, emergency responders and mail deliveries will not be affected.
In November 2020, signs designating maintenance routes were installed along key traffic corridors to allow the Town to issue temporary parking bans. This helps to increase overall efficiency when providing road maintenance services, including snow clearing, street sweeping and road construction.
The Town thanks the community for their support and cooperation while transportation crews continue to deliver road maintenance services to our community.
