Crews to begin hauling away snow from some streets following yet another storm
The City of Toronto says that dozens of crews will be working 12-hour shifts for the next five to seven days as they load excess snow into dump trucks and transport it to city-owned facilities to melt.
According to Environment Canada data, the city has received about 128 centimetres of snow this winter season, 107 centimetres of which has come over the last six weeks alone. That total is more than the 105 centimetres of snow that the city typically receives in an entire winter. The city says that it will be prioritizing streets where there may be safety issues due to the size of snow banks.
