City of Greater Sudbury Prepared for Potential Winter Storm

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for this weekend. City staff is prepared to respond.
Weather conditions are closely monitored by municipal staff around the clock, seven days a week, using a customized weather service, Ontario Ministry of Transportation highway reports, and data generated from local remote weather stations.

City and contractor crews are ready to address conditions. Staff regularly patrols municipal roads throughout the city to assess the need for plowing, sanding and salting. A chart outlining when crews are deployed, along with other information on winter operations, can be found at www.greatersudbury.ca/winter.

Please drive according to weather and road conditions and exercise caution around operating plows. Residents should consider delaying unnecessary travel during the storm.

Updates and information on City services during the snowstorm are shared via social media on Twitter @greatersudbury and Facebook www.facebook.com/greatersudbury. Up-to-date weather information can be found on the Environment Canada website at www.weather.gc.ca.
