snow-storm-fullOwen Sound - The City of Owen Sound Public Works employees have been plowing most of the night and will continue to do so in an effort to keep all arterial and collector roads clear and passable.

Road conditions along arterial and collector roadways are in fair condition with surface conditions varying between track bare and centre bare. Motorists are reminded to give plows room to do their work and stay well back when following a plow. Do not attempt to pass a plow. If it is necessary to go out, motorists are advised to drive with caution.

Sidewalks are snow covered with areas of deep snow. Pedestrians are encouraged to be mindful of these conditions while walking.

The Transit System is operational but running 5 to 10 minutes behind schedule.
