Freeze Thaw Cycle and the impacts on Roads and Sidewalks

Roads and sidewalks are impacted by the Freeze Thaw Cycle. As the weather warms up and cools again it results in potholes opening on roads and puddles on sidewalks turning to ice.

Operators actively address both issues to keep conditions safe. Staff regularly sand and salt for traction on sidewalks and work to address potholes throughout Town this time of year.

Please report potholes and/or sidewalk issues to the Town’s Operations, Parks and Facilities Clerk with the closest address and details:

• Through the online Report a Concern Form
  
• By email - jkaske@shelburne.ca
• By phone - 519-925-2600 ext. 261
