Speeding up the snow clearing process in North Battleford
North Battleford is bringing out the big guns when it comes to snow removal.
The city has deployed a brand new industrial strength snow blower which has sped up the process considerably.
According to a release from the city, crews were able to clear 100th, 102nd, and 103rd streets, as well as 11th and 10th Avenue in a matter of four hours. The job would previously have taken two days.
North Battleford communications coordinator Susanne Abe said the blower is attached to the front of tractor and in tandem with a truck can quickly clear the mounds of snow left over from the plows.
