Snow Update December 30, 2017
9 a.m. - A message from our District of Squamish snow clearing crews:
- The focus currently remains on Red Routes to widen back for snow storage and drainage. Once that is complete we will begin on secondary routes.
- We understand that some residents may find it difficult to get out of their roads - we are trying to get to the "hill' side roads first and then the flat areas next.
- We also understand that large windrows will be left in driveways but unfortunately, we cannot assist at this time due to the volume of work that needs to be completed.
- Residents could assist us greatly by bringing in your garbage cans, once waste is picked up, wherever possible.
- Calls placed to DOS over the weekend may not be called back, but please be assured your service requests will be added to the work lists. (Call 24-hrs to 604.815.4040).
We've heard so many great stories of neighbours helping neighbours. Thank you to everyone who has lent a hand! Thank you also to those who have been able to maintain the sidewalks in front of their properties. It is very challenging currently for pedestrians to get around and we hope to improve this as the cleanup continues.
We will be working around the clock to remove the snow. Thank you for your patience and assistance as we dig out from under the storm!
