Municipality lifts enforcement of overnight winter parking ban

Friday, Feb. 14, 2025 (Halifax, N.S.) – The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that enforcement of the overnight winter parking ban has been lifted in both Zone 1 – Central and Zone 2 – Non-Central.

Crews are active in all areas and are applying de-icing materials. The majority of main streets are clear and passable; however, icy conditions are still present.

The overnight winter parking ban is in effect from now until March 31. Regardless of the status of an overnight winter parking ban, or whether you have received a notification, vehicles can be towed any time during the day or night, any day of the year, if they are interfering with snow-clearing operations, as per Section 139 of the Nova Scotia Motor Vehicle Act. The URL for the act is “https://nslegislature.ca/sites/default/files/legc/statutes/motor%20vehicle.pdf”

Think before you park this winter — it will help make the season a little easier on everyone.
