Check the Sidewalk Snow Clearing Web Map to find which sidewalks, trails and walkways the City is responsible for clearing.

Property owners must clear snow and ice from sidewalks adjacent to their property by midnight the day after snow, sleet or freezing rain. Learn about your snow clearing responsibilities.

Additional information:

  • Snow clearing reports are based on City staff's visual observations. The projected completion times are calculated based on equipment capabilities, temperature, snow intensity and duration.
  • Additional reports may be issued. A final report will be posted when the City's snow clearing activities are completed.
  • The reports are reflective of the legislated priorities of all municipalities in Ontario. Every attempt will be made to clear the snow as effectively and efficiently as possible.
  • Contact Service Oshawa for questions specific to your residence or property.
