Snow Clearing Priority Map 

Questions or Concerns? 

Contact: eng@swiftcurrent.ca or 306-778-1625 for the 24 hours/day Snow Line.  The Snow Line records messages from the caller and converts it to a written e-mail that the department receives. These messages will be addressed based on priority.  

The City of Swift Current follows this priority map throughout winter.  This ensures that the areas with a heavier volume of traffic, and a greater significance for the general population, get cleared first.  The priority map is based on:

Priority One: Downtown Business District, Highway Services Roads, & Industrial Areas

Priority Two: Main Arterials

Priority Three: Collector Streets

Priority Four: School Zones

Priority Five: Residential Arterials 

Watch for signage in your area.  The crews may be there to clear your street!  

Remember to clear your sidewalk, prepare your vehicle, and be patient!

Sanding
The City of Swift Current also carries out a street sanding program.  Sanding is focused on intersections, bridge decks, hills, and curves.
