Strathcona County is committed to providing efficient services and maintaining safe conditions for residents throughout the winter season. We use a priority approach to manage snow and ice on County roads and trails.
Residents have an important role in supporting winter operations. This includes keeping sidewalk clear and moving vehicles during snow clearing on residential areas.
Sidewalk clearing
Residents have 48 hours to clear their sidewalk after a snowfall. Find free rock chips to manage ice.
Parking bans during snow removal
Learn about the two different types of parking bans and sign up to receive notifications.
Urban snow clearing and ice control
Following a priority approach, high-volume and high-speed roads are cleared and sanded first.
Rural snow clearing and ice control
After five to seven centimetres of snowfall, all rural roads are cleared within five days. Learn more.
Curb ramps
To ensure safe and efficient snow removal, curb ramps must be removed from the road between November 1 and April 15. Learn more.

The Strathcona County Snowmelt Facility can be accessed during operating hours by permit holders only.
