Based on current cond billionphotos-1076477 itions and the long-term weather forecast, the City of Cornwall has decided to lift the overnight winter parking restrictions.

Effective Friday, March 11th at 11 pm, the winter parking restrictions will be removed. This means vehicles can park on City streets overnight unless there is a snowstorm with a forecasted snowfall of 5 cm or more. Should another winter parking restriction be necessary, the City of Cornwall will issue a notice.

Please note this applies to overnight winter parking restrictions only. All regularly-marked parking restrictions will remain in force as posted.

The City’s Parking By-law was recently modified to allow for more flexibility when it comes to overnight winter parking restrictions. Restrictions are in place from November 15th to March 31st and during the month of March, Municipal Works staff can opt to lift the winter parking restrictions based on the status of existing snow accumulation and the weather forecast.
