The ban will conclude Monday at 7 a.m.

Parking bans are required to clear snow and ice accumulation from arterial and collector roads, bus routes and roads within business improvement areas.

A Phase 2 parking ban for residential and industrial roads will not be activated, said a statement from the city.

Crews will continue to maintain roads and apply traction materials.

Windrows are being assessed in Edmonton’s 634 school zones. Those with large windrows will see heavy equipment stack and remove snow daily from Dec. 22 to Jan. 4. Street parking in these areas is prohibited while crews are working and will be marked accordingly.

Information on parking bans as well as snow and ice information in specific neighbourhoods can be found here.

Winter road conditions can be reported to the city through 311.
