Snow storm prompts parking ban and cancellations

By Steve MacArthur Jan 28, 2024 | 9:06 PM

You will want to make sure your car or truck is off the street after a messy storm hit the province Sunday night.

The city is putting its winter parking ban in place to help with snow clearing.

It means you could get a ticket or end up being towed between 1 a.m. and 6 a.m. if you park on the street.

The city is expected to receive up to 20 centimetres Sunday into Monday.

Environment Canada has put snowfall warnings in place ahead of the system.

Closure and Cancellations

  • Garbage and recycling pick up is cancelled
  • Due to the stormy weather forecast for tomorrow (Monday, Jan. 29), many rec facilities in Halifax will delay opening. A decision will be made mid-morning regarding scheduled programming. Call your local rec centre before heading out
