Residential street snow removal is now complete in Spruce Grove. A huge thank you to the community for your patience and cooperation, and to the City’s snow removal crews for their efforts and extended hours to clear Spruce Grove’s residential neighbourhoods.

Residential street snow removal is nearly complete in Spruce Grove. Crews expect to finish clearing McLaughlin and Woodhaven by the end of today, along with part of Greenbury. The completion of Greenbury is scheduled for tomorrow (January 30) along with Prescott.

On January 28 over a 24-hour period, 531 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump.

As of today, crews have completed residential snow removal in Harvest Ridge and Hilldowns and are on track to finish Legacy Park. Work in the McLaughlin subdivision will extend into tomorrow (January 29) for completion. Woodhaven and Greenbury are also scheduled for January 29, followed by Prescott on January 30.

The volume of snow and ice that crews have been removing from residential streets has put pressure on snow removal equipment, which has resulted in some necessary repair work. Despite these challenges, crews are hopeful that all residential snow removal will be completed by the end of the day on Friday (January 30).

Crews continue to face challenges with residents parking their vehicles on streets where snow removal has been scheduled. Parking on residential streets during scheduled snow removal operations is not permitted. Watch for orange signs in neighbourhoods that will tell you when snow removal operations are scheduled to begin and ensure vehicles are moved by 7 a.m. on this date or check the online progress chart for details.

On January 27 over a 24-hour period, 561 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump.

Residential snow removal is currently underway in both Harvest Ridge and Hilldowns and work in these areas may carryover into tomorrow. Crews finished up work in the Deerk Park subdivision earlier today.

Snow removal in McLaughlin and Legacy Park is scheduled to begin on Wednesday (January 28), followed by Woodhaven and Greenbury on January 29, and Prescott on January 30. Check the online progress chart for more information.

On January 26 over a 24-hour period, 458 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump.

We’re heading into the final week of residential snow removal in Spruce Grove, with all subdivision areas expected to be complete on or around January 30. We’d once again like to thank residents for their patience during this time – we know it’s been challenging! Full residential snow removal is a huge undertaking that involves clearing snow from approximately 94 km of neighbourhood streets, which, under normal conditions, takes about 19 days. It requires significant resources, collaboration, and the ability to pivot when new conditions or equipment challenges come up, but our crews are doing their very best to keep Spruce Grove’s roads safe, clear, and ready for travel. 

Residential snow removal is expected to be complete today (January 26) in Deer Park and will extend into tomorrow (January 27) in Harvest Ridge. Work is also scheduled to start tomorrow in Hilldowns, followed by McLaughlin and Legacy Park on January 28, Woodhaven and Greenbury on January 29, and Prescott on January 30. Between January 23-25, 303 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump.

Crews are running into some challenges with vehicles that are not being moved from streets or people who are parking next to windrows of snow, which can cause delays. To support safe and efficient snow removal, residents are reminded that parking on residential streets during scheduled snow removal operations is not permitted. Watch for orange signs in neighbourhoods that will tell you when snow removal operations are scheduled to begin and ensure vehicles are moved by 7 a.m. on this date or check the online progress chart.

Today snow removal crews will complete residential snow removal in Grove Meadows and Lakewood, which means 63% of subdivision areas will be cleared.

Due to necessary equipment repairs, changes have been made to the residential street clearing schedule and, unfortunately, this means the Hilldowns area, which was originally scheduled for today, has been rescheduled to next week (January 27). Residents can find the updated schedule online.

Work is still expected to happen in some back alleys over the coming weekend.

Yesterday (January 22) over a 24-hour period, 259 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump.

Our snow removal crews have fully completed residential street snow removal in 54% of subdivision areas and are expected to wrap up in Grove Meadows and Lakewood today, before moving on to Hilldowns tomorrow (January 23). On Monday (January 26), work will begin in Deer Park and Harvest Ridge. See the online progress chart. Please ensure all vehicles have been moved from these residential streets by 7 a.m. on the day snow removal is scheduled to begin to support safe and efficient snow removal operations.

Night crews have finished blading work to level out the front streets in residential areas that are still waiting for full snow removal. Blading will also occur in some back alleys to help improve accessibility until full alley snow removal is performed. Crews are scheduled to carry out complete snow removal in the back alleys of Brookwood and Broxton Park this coming weekend.

Yesterday (January 21) over a 24-hour period, 412 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump. Since December 30, 2025, that brings the total number of loads to 5,483.

Residential street snow removal is scheduled to finish in Spruce Village and Kenton today (January 21) and will begin in Grove Meadows and Lakewood tomorrow (January 22), and Hilldowns on January 23. See the online progress chart.

Night shift crews will continue blading front streets to help level out ruts, which is anticipated to be complete tonight. Then, the night shift crew will shift its focus to using an ice breaker and grader in back alleys to help make them passable until full alley snow removal is scheduled. Additionally, crews will continue snow removal from back alleys over the coming weekend, specifically in Brookwood and Broxton Park.

Yesterday (January 20) over a 24-hour period, 385 loads of snow were transported to the City’s snow dump.

Residential street snow removal is underway today (January 20) in Millgrove, Aspenglen/Creekside, and Copperhaven. Crews will then move into Spruce Village/Kenton on January 21, Grove Meadows and Lakewood on January 22, and Hilldowns on January 23.

Yesterday crews transported 480 loads of snow to the City’s snow dump and worked on blading the front streets to level out ruts in Prescott and Deer Park. This blading work will continue tonight in the Harvest Ridge and Hilldowns subdivisions.

Crews are facing challenges with vehicles that remain parked on streets that are scheduled to be cleared. Vehicles must be moved from the street during scheduled snow removal operations. Please look for orange signs at the entrance to subdivisions indicating when snow removal is scheduled to start or watch for online updates.

Residential street snow removal is underway today (January 19) in Aspenglen/Jesperdale and Millgrove and is scheduled to start in Aspenglen/Creekside and Copperhaven tomorrow (January 20), followed by Spruce Village/Kenton on January 21, Grove Meadows and Lakewood on January 22, and Hilldowns on January 23. Look for orange signs at the entrance to subdivisions indicating when snow removal is scheduled to start or watch for online updates. Please remember to move vehicles from the street during scheduled snow removal operations.

Additionally, City crews have been out with graders to level out ruts in neighbourhoods that are still waiting for full residential snow removal. To date, Legacy Park, McLaughlin, Woodhaven, and Greenbury have been bladed, and Prescott is anticipated to be done tonight (January 19).

Over the past 24 hours, crews have moved 336 loads of snow to the City’s snow dump.

Thanks to favourable weather conditions, crews have been able to accelerate residential snow removal operations. Today (January 16) crews are working in the alleys of the City Centre area, and while work in the Aspenglen/Jesperdale subdivision isn’t scheduled to start until Monday (January 19), crews are there today working to clear the main road (vehicles on the main road today will not be ticketed or towed). Residential street snow removal will continue in Aspenglen/Jesperdale and Millgrove on Monday, followed by Aspenglen/Creekside and Copperhaven on January 20, Spruce Village/Kenton on January 21, and Grove Meadows and Lakewood on January 22. It is anticipated that all residential snow removal will be complete by January 30. Check status updates online.

Over the weekend, crews will continue snow removal in back alleys and on Sunday evening, as temperatures cool, the night crew will focus on blading ruts on the front streets of subdivisions. This approach is being implemented due to the volume of snow that has been received, and work will be done in reverse order on the residential snow removal rotation map to prioritize those residents who have experienced longer wait times for snow removal.

Residential street snow removal has now been completed in 11 subdivisions and work will resume today (January 15) in Broxton Park and Brookwood and is scheduled for Millgrove and Aspenglen/Jesperdale on January 19 and Copperhaven on January 20. Look for orange signs at the entrance to subdivisions indicating when snow removal is scheduled to start or watch for online updates. As a reminder, there is no parking on signed residential streets starting at 7 a.m. on the date snow removal is scheduled to begin until snow removal is complete and signs are removed.

Additionally, with overnight temperatures expected to drop below freezing tonight, City crews plan to be out with graders to level out ruts in neighbourhoods that are still waiting for full residential snow removal. We're taking this approach as a result of the tremendous amount of snowfall we've received and this work will be done in reverse order on the residential snow removal rotation map to prioritize those residents who have experienced longer wait times for snow removal. The cooler temperatures are necessary for this work, which will help provide some relief for drivers until full residential snow removal is completed in these areas. Crews will also begin some alley snow removal over the weekend.
