Halifax: Parking ban in place as storm approaches

You’ll need to keep vehicles off the street as another storm is ready to hit.

The overnight parking ban is in place and covers all communities in the municipality.

It means you must park off street between 1 a.m. and 6 a.m. to allow for proper clear up of snow and slush.

“Vehicles obstructing a driveway or sidewalk are prone to damage and become dangerous for crews. Such obstacles prevent crews from clearing the sidewalks properly, which can quickly become an accessibility issue for pedestrians, seniors, people with mobility issues and parents pushing strollers.” said the city in an email.

If you car or truck is in the way of snow clearing efforts you find a ticket under your wiper or be towed.

A freezing rain warning is in effect for most of the province, including Halifax. The forecast calls for a messy storm with snow, freezing rain, ice pellets and rain expected.
