CALGARY – The City of Calgary declared a Snow Event on Wednesday, which means a Snow Route Parking Ban is in place until further notice.
Residents parked on designated Snow Routes must move their vehicles – and can be ticketed or towed if they don’t.
Snow Routes include major roadways, collector roads and most bus routes, and are marked by blue signs with a white snowflake.
A map and full list of Snow Route locations is available on Calgary.ca/snow.
The ban went into place at 9 a.m. on Wednesday and could last for up to 72 hours.

Northeast communities like Redstone and Skyview Ranch were some of the hardest hit by the recent blizzard in Calgary.
Residents were forced to dig out of massive snow drifts, and some of them still haven’t been able to rescue their cars.
