Roads:

The Town of Whitby maintains approximately 492 kilometres, or 1070 lane kilometres of road. Typical maintenance performed each year on our roads are:

• grading gravel roads and shoulders
• ditching
• road side grass mowing
• brushing and grubbing
• application of dust suppressants on gravel roads
• asphalt patching
• line marking
• curb repairs
• debris and litter pick-up

Some maintenance is routinely performed each year, however, most roads are scheduled for maintenance only as required. Deficiencies reported by the public are repaired on a priority basis. If you have any questions about what maintenance will be performed on your road this year, please contact the Operations Centre at 905 668-3437.

Sidewalks:

The Town of Whitby maintains approximately 471 kilometres of sidewalk. Trip ledges, cracks and other sidewalk damage will be temporarily repaired on a priority basis. Repairs to damaged sidewalk will be undertaken by the Town, as deemed necessary. Each year major sections of deficient sidewalks and curb are replaced by public tender. The Town of Whitby By-law states that objects such as wood, concrete or brick driveway edging, hedges or shrubs, fences, and flower beds are not to be place within 300mm (12") of a municipal sidewalk.
