What is the City’s policy for clearing City streets following a winter storm?
Winter storm response in St. Catharines is undertaken in a two-tiered approach. When a storm begins, all of our equipment is deployed on Main routes which consist of arterial roads and major collector streets. They also include lower volume roads which have steep grades or dangerous curves. Once the main routes have been salted and/or plowed, then the Secondary (local) streets are sanded and/or plowed.
