Preparing for the season
STEP 2: Cleaning Beginning in March, staff launch a cleaning blitz to clear winter debris from roadways, sidewalks, woodlots and parks. This is followed by essential seasonal services like street sweeping and grass cutting, with last season’s efforts covering 8,500 lane kilometers and removing 1,202 tonnes of litter and illegal dumping. Before the season kicks off, City assets are inspected to ensure quality and safety.
STEP 3: Restoration
STEP 1: Reflection At the end of summer, Public Works reviews the season to assess performance, gather feedback and identify opportunities for improvement, ensuring clear communication of service levels. STEP 4: Planning Public Works prepares for summer maintenance well before winter ends by organizing a preventative maintenance schedule for City spaces. This includes garbage collection, shrub bed care, litter removal, fire hydrant inspections and stormwater pond grass cutting. This proactive approach keeps the city safe, clean and beautiful throughout the spring and summer seasons.
With warmer weather, staff work to restore areas affected by winter operations, ensuring a smooth transition to spring.
