Statement from The City of Humboldt on
SNOW CLEARING EFFORTS
HUMBOLDT, SK —Over the past week, from Monday evening through Tuesday, the City of Humboldt experienced snowfall of approximately 40 cm. The Public Works Department activated all its snow-clearing equipment and engaged additional contract equipment to clear the priority routes promptly.
With another 30 to 40 cm of snow possibly falling this weekend, the City of Humboldt advises that it will again activate its fleet of equipment to address this anticipated storm. As early as 4 a.m. on Sunday morning, the City will work with contractors to clear the Priority 1 streets.
The community can help the snow management process by removing parked vehicles from along the Priority 1 and 2 routes, minimizing unnecessary travel this weekend, and understanding that it will take time to clear all areas of the City. This cooperation will help Public Works staff clear the roads more quickly and ensure emergency services vehicles can move freely around the City when necessary.
If the public has any inquiries related to the snow-clearing process, they can find the Snow Clearing Priority Map on the City’s website or, from Monday to Friday, call the City at 306-682-2525.
