Does the Municipality clear sidewalks?
HRM clears most sidewalks within an assigned service area, those that abut the sidewalk in Peninsular Halifax and Spryfield who are not on a main transit route are responsible for the removal of snow removal under Bylaw S300. Like the street clearing operation, our snow clearing crews clear sidewalks also based on a service standard, thus sidewalks clearing takes anywhere between 12 hours to 72 hours after the end of a snowfall. Our full crew is presently working and they won’t stop until all sidewalks are done.
