Winter parking ban in place in St. Catharines as snow cleanup continues

With the heavy snowfall, the City of St. Catharines has put a winter parking ban in effect. 

The ban began at noon Thursday after the City declared a significant weather event. 

On-street parking is restricted in most neighbourhoods to allow plows and emergency vehicles to operate. 

Drivers who don’t move their vehicles could face a $40 fine and towing. 

The ban is expected to remain in place for at least 72 hours, weather permitting.
