The Municipality of Central Elgin is declaring a significant weather event in respect to a winter storm which may bring freezing rain, heavy snowfall and high winds, starting on February 16th, 2025 at 9 p.m., and continuing until further notice.

Users of the roads and sidewalks in the Municipality of Central Elgin are advised to avoid unnecessary travel, and to use caution if doing so.

The public is asked not to park on municipal streets while plowing activities are being performed, and to refrain from depositing snow on municipal roadways or sidewalks. All overnight parking permits are suspended until further notice.

Roads crews will remain diligent in their efforts to keep all routes clear, however priority will be provided to high traffic routes.

The municipal response time for road and sidewalk snow and ice clearing is expected to be delayed. We may be required to plow high volume roads multiple times before being able to address lower traffic routes, subdivisions and sidewalks.

Providing for the safety of the travelling public throughout the Municipality is a responsibility that our staff take very seriously, and we strive to provide this service in an effective and efficient manner. We appreciate your patience and understanding as staff complete their work.
