The Town of Gander apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.

We understand that it takes time to adjust to the snowy conditions.

However, this morning, our snow clearing team encountered 17 incidents of vehicles parked roadside, which hindered their operations. Our team works tirelessly, often in challenging conditions, to keep our roads safe. We need your help to make their job easier and to ensure everyone's safety on the streets.

The winter parking ban is in effect until April 30, 2025. During this time, street parking is prohibited from 12 AM - 8 AM or at ANY TIME that would obstruct snow removal.

Let’s work together to keep our community safe and accessible, as we embrace another NL winter!

Date & Time: December 2, 2024, from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM

Thank you for your understanding.

Our 2024/2025 Snow Plan is adopted and we are ready for the winter!

This plan outlines the equipment, personnel, routes, and priorities for clearing snow and ice: https://www.gandercanada.com/home-property-and-roads/snow-clearing/ 

This year, the building at Cobb's Pond Rotary Park will be accessible throughout the winter, and the paved walking trail around the bowl will be cleared.

Additionally, as part of the 2024 Budget, Council purchased a sidewalk snowblower! This new equipment will be put to use on a trial route focusing on improving sidewalk services, especially near schools.

Our crews put in long hours, often in challenging conditions, to help maintain a safe community.

A little patience and kindness can go a long way, especially during an NL winter!

The Waste Transfer Station will be open on Saturday, November 16th. Hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
