Local Snow Facts: Prince Albert
Snowfall. Environment and Climate Change Canada's 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the Prince Albert station record an average of about 112 cm of snowfall a year, with about 6 days a year bringing 5 cm or more of new snow.
Sidewalks. In the City of Prince Albert, sidewalk snow removal in the downtown Central Business District is a requirement of the Clean Sidewalk Bylaw No. 9 of 1992; the time limit was not stated on the page reviewed. Elsewhere, the City's Snow and Ice Control Policy asks property owners to clear sidewalks within 48 hours of a snowfall, a request that is not stated as a bylaw requirement.
Snow on the road. Shovelling snow onto the street is against the City's Traffic Bylaw, 2013 (section 78(b)).
City plowing. Clearing follows a priority sequence of emergency routes, transit routes, school zones and downtown, then residential streets; no completion times are published.
For contractors. Parking bans are declared on Priority 1 streets after 4 or more inches of snow, at 9 a.m. or 4 p.m., and stay in effect for 48 hours. Public snow dump sites are across the river (former drive-in area) and at the end of 28th Street West, south of the Alfred Jenkins Field House.
Municipal rules and service levels change. Confirm the current bylaw with the municipality before relying on it.
