County of Stettler Press Release:
Friday, February 20: Important reminders about snow removal on County roads.
For everyone’s safety:
– Do not plow County roads
– Do not push snow onto or across County roads
– Do not pile snow in County rights-of-ways
When snow is moved onto roads or, across gravel surfaces it creates hidden hazards for drivers and makes conditions unsafe for our equipment and our operators.
It can also impact road quality and make snow clearing less efficient for everyone.
Our Public Works team works hard to keep roads safe and passable throughout the winter, and we truly appreciate everyone’s cooperation in helping us do this safely and effectively.
Wednesday, February 11, 2026: While our crews have been out since the storm subsided, high winds have blown snow back in across several areas.
Routes that were previously cleared need to be re-cleared and we will continue to open roads throughout the County of Stettler.
Please know our crews are working tirelessly and safely to open roads throughout the County.
With drifting expected to continue in some areas, certain roads may require multiple passes before conditions fully stabilize.
In addition, the extreme cold has created some temperature-related challenges with equipment, slowing progress.
Our priority remains getting all County roadways open and safe for travel. Once that is complete, we will begin clearing driveways.
We truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through these challenging conditions.
