The Town of Cobourg would like to remind all residents that winter parking bylaws will take effect as of Sunday, November 1, 2026, to ensure safe and efficient snow removal operations during the winter season.
It is especially important that collector and arterial roads (major roads) remain clear for safe passage.
The Town of Cobourg Parking Bylaw 048-2023 states no parking on designated collector and arterial roads, between November 1 and March 31, between the hours of 2 a.m. and 7 a.m. (see Schedule M). The bylaw further states that no person shall park a vehicle that obstructs the removal of snow from the streets; Sec. (15(1)(a)) and prohibits parking a vehicle on any highway within the Municipality during a snow or significant weather event when notice has been given; Sec. 16(1).
For a list of streets that you cannot park on overnight, please see the Town of Cobourg Winter Parking Map or view the online interactive map. The bylaw also states no parking at any time, on all cul-de-sacs and wide corners, laneways, one-way streets and lay bys during the winter season (Schedule N).
The Town of Cobourg appreciates the efforts of its residents in parking off-street to assist with snow removal operations. For more information, visit the Town’s website at www.cobourg.ca/snow or reach out to the Municipal Law Enforcement and Licensing Office at 905-372-8380.
