Winter Parking Ban

From 15 December to 31 March, parking on provincially-owned roads, in the areas listed, is prohibited during any of the following situations:

  • between 1:00am and 6:00am
  • in a manner that hinders, inconveniences or prevents the removal of snow or ice from a highway, unless the vehicle is attended by a person authorized to operate and capable of operating it on a highway
  • from 1 hour after a snowstorm starts to 2 hours after the snowstorm stops

Starting in November, municipalities file their own winter parking regulations for municipally-owned streets. Check with your local municipality for more information.
