November 9, 2020Please see the full policy here.
The Town of Pincher Creek will provide priorities for the control of ice and snow conditions
on streets and sidewalks based on limited resources available.
Snowfall plowing is initiated after an average depth of snowfall of 25cm/9 inches or more, or where the snowfall significantly impedes traffic.
Plowing shall be undertaken subject to the following priorities:
1st - All hills and emergency vehicle routes
2nd - Portions of Main Street
3rd - School zones during regulated hours
4th - Stop and yield signs in commercial areas
5th - Stop and yield signs in residential areas
Reasonable attempts are made to avoid blocking driveways with various plowing techniques including the use of a grader gate which momentarily blocks the flow of a windrow.
Priority areas for snow shall be:
1st Downtown core- Waterton Avenue west to Rimmington Avenue
2nd East Avenue- Main Street south the Kettles Street
3rd School Zone cross walks
4th Kettles Street - East Ave to Police Avenue
