Snow plowing update
The town’s winter operations teams are working hard to clear the roads safely and as quickly as possible. More heavy snowfall is forecasted throughout the day and into the evening.
Given this is a significant weather event crews must operate under adjusted standards for snow removal. It will take longer than usual as they navigate this substantial snowfall.
Crews are working around the clock. Residents may notice increased noise as they complete this work, and we appreciate their patience and understanding.
Be a good neighbour - how residents can help:
- Parked vehicles on the roads can slow down the snow removal process. Park your car off the road whenever possible to help snowplows easily clear the roads.
- Vehicles parking on the street (with permit or without permit) may be ticketed if they are obstructing snow clearing operations.
- Don’t shovel snow from your driveway onto the road.
- If you can, help to clear the snow from the sidewalk in front of your home/business to help pedestrians.
Residents are asked to please allow crews to make it to your area before contacting or entering a request with ServiceOakville.
Visit and follow the town’s social media channels for ongoing snow-clearing updates, status of facility operations and programming, and more.
Oakville Transit information is available on the Oakville Transit website. The large amount of snowfall may cause delays. Residents are encouraged to dress warmly and allow extra travel time.
