Local Snow Facts: Langley
Snowfall. Environment and Climate Change Canada's 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the nearby Abbotsford station record an average of about 56 cm of snowfall a year, with about 3 days a year bringing 5 cm or more of new snow.
Sidewalks. Langley is two separate municipalities with different bylaws. The City of Langley requires owners or occupiers to remove snow or ice from sidewalks and walkways bordering their property within 24 hours after a snowfall, and dangerous roof snow or ice next to a road or sidewalk must be removed immediately (Highway and Traffic Regulation Bylaw, 2013, No. 2871, s. 8(4)). The Township of Langley requires residential sidewalks to be cleared within 24 hours of first accumulation and commercial and industrial areas by 10 a.m. (Highway and Traffic Bylaw No. 4758).
Snow on the road. The City of Langley directs residents to pile snow on their property, not the street or sidewalk. In the Township of Langley, cleared snow cannot be pushed onto roadways and must remain on the property (Highway and Traffic Bylaw No. 4758).
City plowing. The City of Langley clears main routes first, then residential areas and cul-de-sacs. The Township plows major collectors, arterials, school zones, bus routes and hilly areas first, then industrial and commercial roads, then remaining residential roads.
For contractors. The City of Langley asks residents to park off the street because parked vehicles impede plowing.
Municipal rules and service levels change. Confirm the current bylaw with the municipality before relying on it.
