Local Snow Facts: Maple Ridge
Sidewalks. The City of Maple Ridge requires every owner or occupier of real property to remove snow and ice from sidewalks, stairs, ramps and foot paths bordering the property no later than 10:00 a.m. the day following accumulation (Highway and Traffic Bylaw No. 6704-2009). The rule also covers walkways, ramps and stairs on private property that are open to the public, which matters for commercial sites.
Snow on the road. No snow specific prohibition was confirmed, but Highway and Traffic Bylaw No. 6704-2009, s. 32.1(b) generally prohibits depositing earth, refuse, debris or any other thing on a highway without a permit.
City plowing. Primary snow clearing routes are chosen for access to emergency service facilities, main transit routes, high traffic volume, and roads or bridges that are the only access to large neighbourhoods. Secondary routes follow.
Municipal rules and service levels change. Confirm the current bylaw with the municipality before relying on it.
