City Linear Infrastructure director Brittany Hallam told Sudbury.com the latest snow event was considered over at 12 p.m. on Dec. 28, and all city roads need to be clear to city standards within 24 hours of that time, pending more snow doesn’t fall
All Greater Sudbury roads are expected to be cleared by 12 p.m. on Dec. 29, assuming more snow doesn’t fall by then.
An average of between nine and 10 centimetres fell in Greater Sudbury between the evening of Dec. 27 and late morning on Dec. 28, which brings this year’s total accumulation since Dec. 15 to 35 cm. As of the early afternoon of Dec. 28, Hallam said the city’s main roads had, for the most part, been cleared more than once and that all the main roads had been salted and sanded earlier in the storm event.
“Some streets were unintentionally missed, which can happen especially at the beginning of the season with operators unfamiliar with their routes,” Hallam said. The city’s class one to three roads are cleared to bare or near-bare pavement, while the balance of city roads are maintained to a snow-packed and sanded surface.

The city can be contacted through the online 311 portal, accessible 24/7, as well as the 311 customer service phone number and online live chat, which are available from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday.
