Annual Snow Route Overnight Parking Ban lifted
Residential Overnight Parking Ban remains in effect as plowing operations continue

WINNIPEG February 28, 2007 - Bill Larkin, Director of Public Works, announced the Snow Route Overnight Parking Ban has been lifted effective 06:01 a.m. this morning.

The ban had prohibited parking between the hours of 02:00 a.m. and 06:00 a.m. on all streets designated as Snow Routes.

Larkin thanked Winnipeggers for their cooperation in observing the ban. He said, “the absence of parked cars allows snow crews to effectively maintain our priority routes during the winter.”

The Snow Route Overnight Parking Ban runs annually from December 1 to March 1 and is undertaken pursuant to the terms of By-law No. 6288/93.

The public is advised that the Residential Overnight Parking Ban is still in effect while plowing of residential streets continues. This ban prohibits parking between midnight and 6 a.m. on all streets not designated as snow routes. Vehicles parked on affected streets during the prohibited times are subject to being ticketed.
