Saskatoon roads are closed on Monday 15th 2020

Just as we Saskatoon hit a big snow storm last week it was hard to control the situation due to Covid-19 but as we are trying to remove the snow we want workers and students to stay home tomorrow so we can clean the snow before the end of the day tomorrow. As of Tuesday students and workers can follow there normal routine 

Crews will have tackled the accumulation of snow dumped during last weekend's storm in almost half of Saskatoon's residential neighbourhoods by the end of Saturday night, the city says.

Terry Schmidt, the City of Saskatoon's general manager of transportation and construction, said the plan is to have every street in the city graded by Friday, weather permitting.

"As of this morning, basic mobility has been restored in 15 neighbourhoods throughout the city," Schmidt said Saturday.

"Clearing is underway in an additional six neighbourhoods and today or tonight work is scheduled to start on an additional eight neighbourhoods." 

By Saturday night Schmidt said basic mobility will have been restored, or work underway, in 29 of the 65 residential neighbourhoods. 

Basic mobility means "you can get out of your house to go get your groceries and get to your medical appointments and get to work with a car. You don't need a four-by-four or heavy vehicle to be able to get out," Schmidt said.
