Parking Ban Phase 1 (Major roads) ends Friday at 7 a.m.
February 6, 2025

The parking ban will lift Friday, February 7, at 7 a.m. for major roadways. The phase 1 parking ban was completed in 4.5 days as both City and contractor crews cleared snow and ice accumulation from arterial roads, collector roads, bus routes and roads within business improvement areas. Ongoing maintenance and the application of traction materials continues as required.

The City is not activating a phase 2 parking ban for residential and industrial roads at this time. City crews continue to work 24 hours a day to address additional snow accumulation and traction concerns as they maintain more than 12,000 kilometres of roadways and 500 kilometres of active pathways.  

“This was the third phase 1 parking ban of the season and crews completed all priority one roadways within 24 hours as well as completing all phase 1 roadways one day ahead of schedule. All active pathways were also cleared with the service level,” said Val Dacyk, General Supervisor, Infrastructure Field Operations, Parks and Roads Services. “We thank all the crews working 24/7, especially given the extreme cold this week.”

The City encourages residents to report winter road concerns through 311. This helps identify trends, coordinate responses and ensure the most efficient service delivery.
