Feb. 20, 2025 – The City continues its snow removal efforts by targeting the downtown
core tonight, Feb. 20, to ensure safe and accessible streets for residents, businesses,
and visitors.
Crews will focus on the following areas: St. Paul Street, King Street, and Church Street
from Ontario Street to Carlisle Street; and William Street, Queen Street, and James
Street from St. Paul Street to King Street. Work may extend to additional streets as
needed. Operations will begin overnight and continue as weather conditions require.
To support this effort, vehicles parked along these streets will be relocated to Market
Square. The City reminds residents and visitors of the year-round overnight parking
restriction in effect daily from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m. in the downtown core’s metered zones.
“We’re working to keep our downtown safe and accessible during winter weather,” said
Dan Scholman, acting manager of linear infrastructure operations. “We appreciate
everyone’s cooperation as we carry out this important work.”
The City has partnered with the Downtown St. Catharines Association to notify local
businesses. Residents are encouraged to plan ahead and avoid parking in the affected
areas during overnight hours.
