Lanark Highlands Township has adopted the Provincial "Minimum Maintenance Standards for Municipal Highways" Reg. 298/02, as the standard for year-round township road maintenance. 

Winter maintenance activities and priorities are based on the roadway classification and the associated level of service, as well as legislated hours of work, manpower and municipal budget.

The minimum standard for clearing snow accumulation is:

• after becoming aware of the fact that the snow accumulation on a roadway is greater than the depth set out in the Minimum Maintenance Standards, to deploy resources as soon as practical to address the accumulation
• after the snow accumulation has ended, to address the accumulation so as to reduce the snow to a depth less than or equal to the depth set out in the Minimum Maintenance Standards within the time limit set out

The minimum standard for treating icy roadways is to deploy resources as soon as practical after becoming aware of the condition or a high probability of the condition, and to treat the roadway within the time set out in the Minimum Maintenance Standards.

Please remember to adjust your driving speed to suit the prevailing weather and road conditions. Thank you for your co-operation.
