ROADS - PRIMARY SERVICE ROADS, LOCAL RESIDENTIAL STREETS & COURTS
| Primary roads are: |
|
- roads that carry high volumes of traffic, like Main Street and Bramalea Road
- on a Brampton Transit/Züm bus route
- the first to be cleared when it snows
- treated with salt brine and/or salted as needed and then plowed continuously until pavement is bare, during any snowfall
|
| Local residential streets are: |
- maintained after primary roads are complete
- treated with salt (sand may be used during extreme cold weather)
- only plowed when a single storm results in 7.5 cm or more of snow
- Residential streets with a Peel Public or Separate School are treated as primary roads
|
| Courts are: |
- treated in the same manner as local residential streets
- have the snow pile in the middle of the court removed when there is not enough storage area for the next snow event
