Gravenhurst has declared a significant weather event, citing massive snowbanks narrowing roads across town.
The declaration means winter maintenance timelines are suspended while crews work to clear the buildup.
Private contractors will be brought in with snow blowers to widen roads, a process expected to take about two weeks.
Officials urge drivers and pedestrians to use extra caution and remind residents that overnight street parking remains prohibited.
The town says vehicles left on the road will be ticketed and towed.
