Winnipeg prepares for snow plowing as residents voice concerns over delays

Winnipeg will begin residential snow plowing on Wednesday night, using 300 pieces of equipment over five shifts. Residents express concern about delays in snow removal, with some streets still untouched after recent snowfall. A proposed pilot project could delay plowing until 15 cm of snow accumulates, up from the current 10 cm. Residents worry this will worsen conditions on smaller roads, leading to safety issues at intersections. City officials maintain that the pilot project is not a permanent change. They encourage residents to be aware of parking bans during plowing and report missed streets after December 21.
