Residential street grading complete
December 13, 2024 - 1:30pm
City crews and contractors have completed residential street grading in every neighbourhood in Saskatoon.
Graders will return to streets that were missed or skipped due to limited access, such as those with parked cars, as well as back lanes and industrial areas. Temporary parking restrictions will be in place when crews return to finish the work, if needed. This work is expected to be completed by early next week.
Priority street snow removal, aimed at improving storage space and sightlines on high-traffic streets, restarted Thursday night and is expected to continue until the priority street network is complete.
Crews are also continuing to inspect, salt and sand priority streets, as well as local streets, based on reports of icy conditions. If another snow event occurs, resources will be redirected to respond.
All three City-run snow storage sites are currently active and will remain operational as long as conditions permit.
Thank you for your patience as the City continues to keep streets safe and accessible this winter season. Visit saskatoon.ca/snow for more details.
