Local Snow Facts: Milton
Sidewalks. The Town of Milton requires residents to clear snow from their sidewalks within 24 hours of the end of a snow or ice storm. The Town clears only sidewalks along school routes, transit routes and major pedestrian areas once 5 cm or more accumulates.
Snow on the road. Pushing, blowing or shovelling snow onto the road is not permitted under By-law No. 106-2019; snow should go on the owner's property or the Town boulevard.
City plowing. Major roads and transit routes are treated to bare pavement first, then collector and industrial roads, then residential roads, with all plowing targeted within 24 hours after snowfall ends.
For contractors. Winter storm parking restrictions are typically triggered when 10 cm or more is forecast. The Town does not clear windrows except through a program for seniors and people with disabilities.
Municipal rules and service levels change. Confirm the current bylaw with the municipality before relying on it.
