The City of Vaughan’s winter crews are on the job! Learn everything you need to know about the City’s efficient, reliable and high-level salting operations for the 2021/22 season.

What is salting?

Road salt is applied to roads and sidewalks to address snow or ice buildup.

As rain falls and snow melts, water levels and flows in rivers and streams in Vaughan will likely be higher than normal this week. The City encourages you to avoid these bodies of water as these weather conditions can result in higher water levels, fast-flowing cold water and slippery or unstable banks.

As the global COVID-19 pandemic continues, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and rapid antigen tests are frequently used by many citizens in their day-to-day life. To help ensure waste collection runs smoothly, the City of Vaughan is here to remind everyone of how to properly and safely dispose of PPE and rapid antigen test kits.
