My street — a small side street — gets the weirdest amount of priority cleaning for streets and sidewalks. I don’t want to complain, because it’s very nice that it is done, but I don’t understand it. My main complaint is that the signs are often put up at weird times and don’t give a lot of notice — but infoneige emails tend to be correct, whether or not there are signs.

We’ve started used infoneige interactive map to better understand when the snow cleaning will be done.
Will look into the infoneige email notifications jeather mentions.

I really like the infoneige app for its accuracy, but this year I noticed that I didn’t get any notification for snow clearing, even with notifications turned on. It’s perplexing but fortunately it was a day clearing htis time so there were horns. Signs only went up ovenight so I didn’t notice in the morning until I hear the trucks.
