Snow Clearing – Important Community Update​

As the winter season approaches, it’s essential for everyone to be aware of Calgary’s Snow Clearing Policy to ensure safe pathways and roadways for all residents.

Pathway Snow Clearing

All City-owned pathways and sidewalks are cleared by The City of Calgary’s pathway crews. This includes:

• Designated pedestrian pathways in parks and around City-owned properties
• Key walking routes in downtown and popular pedestrian areas
• Pathways that connect neighborhoods, shopping centers, and transit locations

Pathway crews aim to clear snow within 24 hours of the end of a snowfall to ensure that pedestrians, runners, and cyclists have safe and accessible routes.

Your Role in Snow Clearing

​Residents and businesses play a crucial role in keeping our community safe:

• Sidewalks and Walkways: By-law requires that residents clear their sidewalks within 24 hours after the snow stops falling.
• Report Concerns: You can report any uncleared City pathways through the City’s 311 app or by calling 311.
