With the possibility of rain on Wednesday, Windsor officials are asking residents to check for blocked catch basins.
With the snow beginning to melt, a number of side streets in the city have become slushy.
“We had a couple of snowfalls mixed with some freezing temperatures that have left snow packed down on side streets, and that snow is melting and turning into slush,” said Executive Director of Operations Dwayne Dawson. “We’re keeping an eye out for catch basins to ensure they can take in the water as it thaws but if residents living near a catch basin can also check to see that it’s clear that would be helpful."
Dawson says blocked catch basins can lead partial flooding on the streets.
Anyone who sees a basin not working properly is encouraged to call 311.
