SASKATOON - City crews and their contractors have completed snow grading all Priority 1 and 2 streets and most of Priority 3. They will now focus their clean up and snow removal on the Business Improvement Districts and finishing school zones beginning tonight.
In addition, crews are addressing localized areas of concern and any missed sections. Overnight, snow was cleared from ramps on Circle Drive bridges and overpasses, and this work will continue tonight.
The city is also seeing improvements in mobility on residential streets as snow continues to pack down and stabilize, making travel more accessible for all. The city would also like to remind residents to avoid clearing snow from residential roadways alone or hiring private contractors.
Skid steers are clearing snow from accessible loading zones on priority streets, and bus stops to maintain access for residents. Contractor crews will continue to clear sidewalks throughout the city. The city says it appreciates everyone's cooperation and patience as crews work to maintain safe driving conditions.
The city has also asked the public to help clear walkways and driveways, as snow piles can be dangerous for children to play on or dig in, as they may conceal hidden hazards, and equipment may be working on or near them at any time. Parents and guardians are urged to keep children safe by avoiding these areas.
A reminder to all residents: Please avoid blowing or pushing snow onto the streets; doing so can obstruct everyone's mobility and create potential safety risks for drivers and pedestrians alike.
