Snow and Ice Removal

During a snowfall, staff sweep snow from walkways and parking lots and deposit ice melt and sand, prioritizing high-traffic areas and challenging terrain (i.e. steps, inclines, etc).

The campus makes all reasonable efforts to keep campus roadways, parking lots, sidewalks, and walkways free of snow and ice, and safe for pedestrian and vehicle traffic. However, we encourage the campus community to follow winter weather safety practices and to report potentially hazardous conditions.

To report hazardous winter conditions, email facilities.ok@ubc.ca or submit a facilities work order.
