News Releases

The City of Saskatoon is making significant progress on snow removal from priority streets. Snow piles and windrows have been removed from approximately 70 per cent of all priority streets. It is anticipated that snow removal on all priority streets will be completed by mid-February, barring any significant equipment breakdowns or unforeseeable circumstances, and weather permitting 

If another snow event occurs, crews will implement the City’s regular snow response, which includes clearing all priority streets before resuming snow removal. This may result in delays to the expected completion timeline. 

When approaching road maintenance equipment with blue and amber flashing lights, please give operators plenty of space to work safely. 

For more detailed information about winter road maintenance, visit saskatoon.ca/snow, and stay informed with the Snow & Ice Report for current conditions.
