Class 3 roads – The following streets and roads are plowed after 8 cm of accumulation Head, Carrie, Front, Queen, McEvoy, Christi- na, and Parkhouse. Class 4 roads – all rural roads are plowed after 8 cm of accumulation. Class 5 roads – all local and residential streets are cleared after 10 cm of snow. Here’s how you can help our snowplow operators: • Between December 1 and March 31, do not park overnight on the road. • Don’t push snow from your driveway onto the road. • Don’t place garbage bins where they can be buried or damaged. Reading this in November may seem premature but as you can see there is thought put into the clearing of our roads and there are set stan- dards we need to follow. A final point. Our snowplow operators work tire - lessly – sometimes around the clock – to keep our streets clear. Let’s thank them and be un - derstanding. Let’s hope we don’t need the plows for some time – maybe at Christmas.
Mayor’s Message As I write this, it’s a beautiful autumn day in October, so it seems strange to write about snow and snow removal. However, given that our seasons seem to be changing and there is always the possibility of an early snowfall, it is appropriate to talk about snow removal policies. Upon becoming Mayor, a long-time Councillor told me that I would really become a local elect- ed official when I received my first snow remov - al complaint. That did come quickly. Here are some quick facts. Within the Munici- pality, our roads are maintained by two entities: Strathroy-Caradoc and the County of Middlesex. The County maintains major arteries such as Metcalfe and Caradoc Streets in Strathroy and Glendon and Adelaide Roads in Mount Brydges. I will speak to the roads and sidewalks under our jurisdiction. We have nine snowplow routes: four in Strathroy, one in Mount Brydges, and four in our rural areas. It typically takes four to seven hours, depending on the amount of snow, to completely plow all our roads. We also have a total of 110 km of sidewalks to clear in Strathroy, Mount Brydges and Melbourne. The deployment of plows is based on set stan- dards. These standards either meet or exceed the legislated service levels set out by the Province.
