Streets & Sidewalks

The City is working with partners to create Complete Streets Reports for Wards 8, 14 and 3. These projects are aimed at improving road safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers throughout neighbourhoods, as well as increasing neighbourhood livability.

On June 18, 2023, King St East (from John St to Gage Ave) will be closed to vehicle traffic & opened for residents to walk, cycle, or roll!

Have you noticed a fading or missing crosswalk line, stop line or centre line? City staff does lane striping usually late evenings or early mornings when traffic is light.

The City performs road maintenance and repairs to ensure our roads are maintained. Learn how to report a road maintenance issue.

The City’s Snow and Ice By-law requires property owners and/or occupants to clear snow and ice within 24 hours after the end of a snow event. Learn more about your responsibility and the city's enhanced level of sidewalk snow clearing.

Roads are plowed based on priority. Learn more about priority road clearing and how you can find out more about when your route will be plowed.

The City operates approximately 45,000 streetlights and has a proactive replacement program that helps minimize maintenance costs and light outages.

The Hamilton in Bloom sponsorship program turns traffic islands into beautiful flower beds and offers a great opportunity to reach your target market in an innovative way.
