Winter Parking in Sherwood Park: Which Signs to Watch For |
How to tell a snow-route ban from residential clearing, and where to get alerts |
Strathcona County uses two different kinds of winter parking restrictions, and the signs tell you which one applies.
Permanent snow route signs mark collector roads, but the restriction applies only when the County declares a ban.
On residential streets, look for temporary orange signs with the dates parking is restricted.
Move your vehicle off the affected street for the posted period so crews can clear the road.
Winter Roads eNews covers both kinds of restrictions, while SC Alerts sends notices for declared snow-route bans.
At home, clear the sidewalk along your property within 48 hours after snowfall so neighbours using walkers, wheelchairs or strollers can get through.
Free rock chips are available at locations across the County if you need extra traction.

never knew there were two different types of restrictions. Always just assumed all the signs meant the same thing
