The City of Morden, Manitoba, is starting a parking ban on designated snow routes on February 18, 2026. This measure ensures that public works crews can clear snow from the streets effectively and keep emergency lanes open for the community.
Officials posted the notice on February 17, 2026, as part of a system where parking is only restricted when significant snow clearing is required. This replaces the old method of having a general parking ban that lasted every night from October through April.
Residents are asked to move their vehicles off streets marked with “Snow Route” or “No Parking” signs. According to the Morden City Council, those who do not move their vehicles face a $150 fine and the possibility of having their car towed at their own expense.
These rules are designed to help city crews clear major roads more quickly after a snowfall. By keeping these routes clear, the city can maintain a steady flow of traffic on main streets during the winter months.
