Applications are now open for the City of Fernie’s 2024 Driveway Windrow Snow Clearing Program.

Each year the city provides this service for eligible residents to help clear windrows left at the end of residential driveways after a snow plow has cleared the road.

To be eligible there must be no other person residing in either the main residence or a secondary dwelling unit who is under the age of 65 or is not a person with a disability (Health Assessment Form must signed by a regulated physician).

Eligible residents can apply until December 15 for the service.

Eligible residents must apply for this service annually.

Participants will receive windrow clearing services from November 1 to April 15.

This windrow clearing service is provided by secondary plow equipment that comes by later in the day or into the next day after a snowfall event where graders and loaders are dispatched for snow clearing operations.
