City Asking Residents to Keep Streets Clear for Plows

Thursday, 7 February 2013 10:08

The City of Woodstock is sending out a reminder for residents not to park on the side of the street. With the oncoming storm, calling for 15-25cms of snow overnight into Friday morning, city crews need the streets clear to allow plows to properly clear the roads. The overnight parking ban is in effect from 2AM until 6AM. But City Works Superintendent Alex Piggott is asking residents not to "park on the street until the snow plow has cleared your street". Similar parking bans are in place in Ingersoll and Tillsonburg.
