Happy snow day, North Cowichan! We got quite a bit of snow overnight. A few updates:
❌ All curbside collection is cancelled for the day. Sign up for updates to learn about updates and rescheduled collection.
❗The pool at the Cowichan Aquatic Centre will open at 10am. The fitness centre and Fuller Lake drop in programs are open with regular hours.
❄️ Roads are being plowed in priority sequence, with main roads first. Crews are out in full force and will get to secondary and side roads once priority routes are clear.
❄️ The Snow and Ice Removal Policy lists the priority routes as well as other info about clearing snow.
❄️ Crews are also clearing sidewalks in front of and at municipal facilities; residents and businesses are responsible for removing snow and ice from sidewalks that border their property within 48 hours of snowfall.
❄️Shovel snow onto your property and not on the street.
💙 Check on your neighbours and, if you can, help others with clearing snow.
🚨Drive for the conditions, stay home if you can, and be prepared before you head out - check road conditions at www.drivebc.ca
