GENERAL SNOW REMOVAL SCHEDULE

*following the completion of Main Street snow removal the AGT Centre, Civic Centre
and the Elks Hall parking lots will be cleared, at the Superintendent’s discretion.
- 9th Ave.
- 6th St.
- 6th Ave
- residential areas
Snow on Main St. is hauled first, followed by 1st, 2nd, 3rd Avenue east and west sides
All other Town owned parking lots will be cleared after adjacent residential streets are cleared.
The Town does not clear any parking lots for private businesses.
The Town does not clear any sidewalks except for on town owned property
Back lanes are cleared with the front-end loaders and the streets are cleaned by the graders. The front-end loaders are able to move snow quicker than the graders so lanes are often cleared before residential streets. Streets that are congested with parked vehicles are cleared when the majority of the parked vehicles have been moved. This alleviates the problem of the graders burying the vehicles as they grade the streets.
Schedule subject to change due to weather and is at the Superintendent’s discretion
