Here is some helpful tips when viewing the map:

  1. Snow Map is updated every hour
  2. Map has been upgraded to a high definition, zoomable map for reference
  3. Various colors on the map indicate time reference of when the roads have been plowed
  4. If no data is shown (ex. a map isn’t populated on the screen) then there has not been any snow plowing with the last 72hrs, check back again later

Clearing roads is a #1 priority in the RM and crews will begin clearing snow as soon as it is safe and practical to do so following a snowfall.

The RM would like to thank everyone for their cooperation during this winter season to ensure the safety of all ratepayers and staff of the RM.
