Snow route parking ban starts Monday, February 24

A snow route parking ban will go into effect on all collector roads in Sherwood Park on Monday, February 24 at 7 a.m.

The parking ban applies to collector roads marked with permanent snow route signs. It does not apply to other local residential streets in Sherwood Park. Residents are asked to remove their vehicles from all affected roads to allow for safe and efficient snow removal.

Vehicles parked on collector roads during the parking ban will be towed, and the owner issued a $250 ticket. Parking is only permitted after the snow has been removed.
