News Releases

City and contractor snow crews will begin clearing the priority street network tonight after Saskatoon received over approximately 7cm of snow on Monday, February 23. This is the 7th snow event of the season.

Snow accumulation is not expected to affect Saskatoon Transit or waste collection.

What you can expect from us

1. Crews will grade Priority 1 streets like Circle Dr and streets with three+ lanes each way like Idylwyld Dr, 22nd St and College Dr.
2. By 12 hours in, we plan to move onto Priority 2 double-lane streets like Clarence Ave, McKercher Dr and Millar Ave.
3. Next, we will get to the Priority 3 streets that take you through your neighbourhood like Louise Ave, Howell Ave and Main St.
4. We will also clear City facility sidewalks, Meewasin Trail, pathways along major routes, and walkways over bridges and overpasses within 48 hours.

How you can help us

1. When you see the blue and amber flashing lights of snow crews, please slow down, remain at least 15 metres (2.5 car lengths) behind, and be prepared to stop.
2. Anticipate winter driving conditions and adjust your driving. This includes slowing down and allowing more space between vehicles.
3. Clear your business sidewalks within 24 hours and residential sidewalks within 48 hours. Please keep this snow on your property.
