Did you know that you can request any City service by calling 3-1-1? It is a non-emergency, easy to remember phone number that connects residents with accessible customer service. The next time you see a dead animal on the road or a blocked storm drain, consider giving the team at 3-1-1 a call.

Please be advised that the City of Mississauga’s Driveway Windrow Snow Clearing Program will be accepting applications on Monday, August 8, 2016 until Friday, November 11, 2016 before 9 p.m.

Driveway Windrow Snow Clearing Program

The program will provide windrow snow clearing service after every snow plowing operation from November 28, 2016 to March 10, 2017. A space approximately 3 m (10 ft) wide will be cleared in the windrow to allow room for one car to pass.

Windrows will be cleared after active snow plowing operations have been completed. Residents should allow up to 36 hours after the end of a snow storm for their windrow to be cleared. Clearing to bare pavement cannot be guaranteed.

Eligible Residents

Residents who are 65 years and older in 2016 and individuals who are physically disabled can apply for the Driveway Windrow Snow Clearing Program.  The cost to participate is $200. Applicants who qualify for financial assistance may be eligible to receive the service at no cost.

Program Promotions
