Where To Park

There are several parking options depending on which ban is underway.

During a Major Roads Phase 1 Parking Ban, the City clears major roads, core business areas and bus routes such as busy roads like Jasper Avenue or 124 Street. A Residential and Industrial Roads Phase 2 Parking Ban is sometimes called after a Major Roads Parking Ban. These are the quieter roads, like the one in front of your house. It is dependent on many factors, such as the amount of snowfall.

Parking Ban	You Can Park	Do Not Park
Major Roads including core business areas & Bus Routes (Phase 1)	On residential roads that *do not* have 'Seasonal No Parking' signs In parking garages and public parking lots	On arterial and collector roads until these roads have been cleared On bus routes and all roads with 'Seasonal No Parking' signs Within the City’s 13 Business Improvement Areas (7.52 MB)
Residential & Industrial Areas (Phase 2)	On any road that has been cleared if parking is allowed there normally, including 'Seasonal No Parking' areas In designated snow and ice alternative parking stalls and lots With permission, on surplus parking in a neighbour’s property, for example, a parking space	On residential or industrial area roads until these roads have been cleared In residential alleyways

Note: For each phase, parking will be allowed on roads once they are cleared. You do not have to wait for the City to end the ban before parking on a cleared road.

Winter Cycling

Snow doesn’t have to mean the end of bike season. When riding your bike in the winter plan ahead to keep warm and safe.

Residential Sidewalk Snow and Ice

Clear sidewalks of snow and ice around your property as soon as possible to keep everyone moving safely.

Snow Storage

Snow removed from roads is taken to one of Edmonton's snow storage facilities.
