The Phase 2 (Residential) parking ban will be lifted on February 7 at 7 p.m. City plows like ‘The Big Leplowski’ will continue to manage ongoing snow with spot plowing, while other equipment will apply traction material as needed.
“Crews have been agile in responding to snowfall and shifting weather, as well as being able to respond to the recent Bellamy Hill flooding incident. We’re happy to have completed the clearing ahead of schedule,” said Val Dacyk, General Supervisor of Infrastructure Field Operations.
With the parking ban completed, crews have begun clearing cul-de-sacs, working through more than 3,300 sites across the City. Snow at the end of cul-de-sacs will be stacked and then hauled away. This work is completed outside of the residential ban.
From when the parking ban started on January 24 to February 5, 2,875 vehicles were ticketed and 243 were towed to the nearest available street. The City thanks residents for moving their vehicles and allowing crews to clear the roads more effectively and efficiently. Snow clearing in Edmonton is a shared responsibility.
Winter may not be over just yet. Residents are encouraged to sign up for parking ban notifications and receive advanced notice of a ban at
