Significant Weather Event declared

Start Date

King Township has declared a Significant Weather Event, effective today, Wednesday, January 14, 2026, at 11:00 p.m.

The Township urges all to use extreme caution as the hazard poses a significant danger to all roadway users.   

Significant snowfall beginning this evening and lasting through Thursday afternoon with accumulations of 15-20 cm. The heavy snowfall will reduce visibility at times. Travel will be challenging, and isolated power outages are possible. 

A reminder that plowing occurs in priority sequence—major roads first, followed by neighbourhood roads and cul-de-sacs last—to ensure that fire and emergency services are able to drive on the roads and respond to calls.  

Road servicing is typically completed within a 12-hour period after the snowfall is complete. It can take longer during a Significant Weather Event. 

Although crews are very conscious in following route schedules, sometimes streets may be missed. To report an oversight, call ServiceKing at 905-833-5321 or email serviceking@king.ca
