Snow Emergency Over

UPDATE FROM THE CITY OF WINDSOR THURSDAY FEB. 3, 2011


 The storm emergency that was declared for Windsor on February 1st ends Friday February 4th at 7:00 a.m.



Ploughing Status:


• City crews have salted and ploughed the main roads throughout the city and moved on to residential streets last evening.

• It is anticipated that clearing of residential streets will not be completed until early Friday morning.



Residents and Property Owners:



• Since the snow emergency will be lifted on Friday February 4th at 7:00 a.m. free parking at City facilities – including arenas, community centres, municipal lots and garages will end at that time.

• The City’s Sidewalk By-law does require you to clear sidewalks abutting your property.

• Please be aware that during the ploughing process, snow is pushed to the side of the road, and it may be deposited at the end of your driveway, dependent on the level accumulation in the street. The property owner is responsible for clearing the driveway after this has occurred.

• The City of Windsor does not have a bare pavement policy as it relates to residential streets. With the combination of ploughing, salting and vehicular traffic bare pavement of residential streets will eventually be achieved.
