With recent warm weather and below zero temperatures in the forecast, deep ruts and water pooling have developed on streets in residential neighborhoods. To address mobility challenges which are expected to worsen with the drop in temperatures, the City is undertaking a city-wide rut levelling on local streets with City crews and Contractor support, starting tonight.

The work is expected to take approximately 5 days to complete city-wide with priority street snow removal to be paused.

There are approximately 24 graders mobilized to be on the road tonight in residential areas based on conditions and coordinated with the collection schedules, and crews will move into other affected neighborhoods when the collection schedules allow.

Please give road equipment the space they need to operate, signaled by their blue and amber flashing lights.

Drivers are encouraged to adjust to winter conditions, keeping a safe distance from other vehicles.
