UPDATE: 10:15 a.m:

The Department of Public Works says roads are partially or completely snow covered.

They say there is poor visibility in Cape Breton, Antigonish and Guysborough.

Public Works asks to avoid travelling to allow crews plenty of space.

In fact, they say crews have not stopped working around the clock since February 2nd, when the multi-day storm dumped between 100 and 150 cm to northeast Nova Scotia.

HRM says crews will continue to work around the clock to clear the snow from municipal streets, sidewalks and bike lanes with a focus on main arteries, emergency and transit routes.

But crews will continue to clear residential streets and gravel roads.

The city asks that you do not clear snow onto the street or sidewalk.

Municipal offices opened at 10am but HRM says to work from home, if you can.

311 is triaging calls to meet priority needs.

HRM is also enforcing the winter parking ban, Thursday morning.

You must keep your vehicle off municipal streets between 1 and 6 a.m. to not interfere with snow removal.
