With the Winter weather season upon us, the Roads Department would like to remind Plummer Township residents of the following:
WINTER PARKING
For the purposes of facilitating snow removal, the parking of vehicles on the streets from November 1st to April 30th is prohibited. Vehicles found in contravention of By-law 99-02 may result in the vehicle being towed away at the owner’s expense.
CLEARING SNOW ONTO ROADS
Blowing or plowing snow from your property onto the street contravenes Section 181 of the Ontario Highway Traffic Act. When you are clearing snow from your driveway, please do not push the snow across the road. Your efforts in making winter driving and walking safe for everyone are appreciated.
DRIVING
When approaching a plow, reduce speed, keep your headlights on low and stay to the right. If driving behind a plow, keep a safe distance (stay back 200 feet), and remember that the plow may need to back up. If you can’t see the mirrors, plow drivers can’t see you!
The Township of Plummer Additional Roads Department thanks you for your continued cooperation.
