Local Snow Facts: Sherwood Park
Snowfall. Environment and Climate Change Canada's 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the nearby Edmonton City Centre station record an average of about 124 cm of snowfall a year, with about 7 days a year bringing 5 cm or more of new snow.
Sidewalks. Sherwood Park is an urban service area in Strathcona County, so county bylaws apply. Residents and business owners have 48 hours following a snowfall to clear privately maintained sidewalks around their property (Strathcona County Community Standards Bylaw 57-2022); after a Snow Clearing Notice, owners have 24 hours before a possible fine and County clearing at the owner's expense.
Snow on the road. County guidance says to shovel snow from your sidewalk and driveway onto your property and not onto the road.
City plowing. Priority 1 major thoroughfares are cleared within 12 hours after accumulation stops and Priority 2 minor arterials within 12 hours after Priority 1. Priority 3 snow routes follow within six days after Priority 2, and Priority 4 residential streets within 10 days.
For contractors. Parking restrictions apply during Priority 3 and Priority 4 snow removal, with ticketing and towing.
Municipal rules and service levels change. Confirm the current bylaw with the municipality before relying on it.
