Walk Toronto supports review of sidewalk snow clearing after problems during winter 2023

Walk Toronto has written to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee in support of a motion to address problems with sidewalk snow clearing, IE2.8 – Request for First Year Review of Winter Maintenance Contracts and Addressing Obstructed Sidewalks with Snow and Ice.

Walk Toronto’s Doug Vallery writes that Toronto should “consider a coordinated, team approach to winter maintenance developed in Montreal, where roadway plows are followed by sidewalk plows in order that problematic windrows created by the former can immediately be cleared by the latter in one clean sweep.”
