After the past weekend’s snowfall, the city of Thunder Bay has implemented its annual calendar parking and priority route restrictions.
Parking officers will be out enforcing the restrictions, and some streets may have additional restrictions posted.
The city implements calendar parking and priority route restrictions during the winter months to allow for snow plows to clear local streets more effectively.
Calendar parking ensures that when the plow arrives, at least one side of the street is clear of parked cars and the plow can clear one side per day.
Calendar parking restrictions are in effect from 9 am- 5 pm every day while priority route restrictions prohibit vehicles from parking on either side of the road from 2 am – 7 am every night to allow for efficient snow plow access.
The parking restrictions will remain in place until the spring.
