We also are responsible for winter maintenance that includes plowing, sanding and snow removal.

Objectives

Our Department objectives are to keep a strong and on going paving program, to repair/replace deteriorated catch basins and manholes by prioritizing conditions and continuing this program. We also plan on replacing deteriorated driveway culverts and doing roadside ditching. The employees will be doing more safety training both in-house and at workshops. As time and personnel allows, we plan on doing road construction projects ourselves to save dollars as opposed to contracting this work out.
