The Town of Gravenhurst will conduct overnight snow removal operations in the downtown area starting at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 8.
The work involves removing snowbanks, which will improve sightlines for motorists and pedestrians.
Businesses and residents with Monday, Feb. 9 as their collection day for waste should not place materials at the curb until Monday morning.
People should use extreme caution when navigating areas where snow removal operations are taking place as there will be trucks and other heavy equipment in use.
Operations will take place on the following roads:
- Muskoka Road South (Muskoka Road 18) at James Street to Bay Street/Brock Street (Muskoka Road 169)
- Muskoka Road North (Muskoka Road 18) at Bay Street/Brock Street (Muskoka Road 169) to Winewood Avenue West and East.
Please note areas not specifically mentioned in this communication are being addressed as time and resources allow. Our team is working diligently between snowplowing activities to mitigate high banks and improve visibility at intersections.
Residents are reminded that overnight parking (12 a.m. to 7 a.m.) is prohibited on local roads from Nov. 1 to April 30. Overnight parking interferes with the town’s snow removal operations.
Vehicles left on roads overnight will be towed at the owner’s expense.
