Snow clearing continues in Winnipeg

The job of clearing away the 22 centimetres of snow that fell on Winnipeg during Monday's storm continues.

Plows were out Monday night, focusing on the main routes, bus routes and collector streets. They will focus on back lanes Tuesday.

And for the first time this winter crews will also plow residential streets. There has not been a need until now as snowfall amounts have been below normal.

A residential parking ban is in effect as of 7 p.m. Wednesday, when the residential plowing will begin.
