City Tackling First Major Snowfall

In response to the winter weather hitting Regina, the City’s dedicated crews are out in full force keeping the roads safe and residents moving.

Regina has received four cm of snow over the past 24 hours. Winter crews were deployed last night to do ice control and will continue working around the clock to ensure traffic keeps flowing around the city. Currently, winter crews are providing a full storm response with graders, sanders and sidewalk machines.

Based on the snowfall forecast for the city, a systematic plow of all major roads will commence before Wednesday morning. Snow routes have been declared and the 24 hour no parking bans are effective as of 6 a.m. November 20.

There are 20 sand stations filled with free sand for residents’ use. A map of the sandbox locations can be found on Regina.ca/Snow.

If travelling, leave extra time and plan routes in advance that would stay on priority roads – or consider using Regina Transit. Slow down and be safe by leaving 3.5 car lengths when following snow plowing equipment.
