Timmins Snowmobile Accessible Streets
City Council has voted in favor of amending the accessible streets bylaw approving the Phase 1 trial period for the 2018/2019 snowmobile season. Phase 1 includes: South Porcupine, Porcupine, Schumacher, Connaught, Mountjoy and Goldcentre.
The Timmins Snowmobile has been working on this process for two years now with the Timmins Police and Timmins City council. Snowmobilers, the ball is now in your court. Understand that this is a phased in TRIAL period and that actions have consequences.
Please understand and respect the following rules:
- must be at least 16yrs. old and possess a valid drivers license or motorized snow vehicle license
- must have valid registration and insurance
- speed limit is 20km/hr
- accessible streets can be used from 7am to 11pm
- stay on accessible streets highlighted on the maps and stay off sidewalks
- obey the rules set out in the Motorized snow vehicle act
The intent of improving snowmobile accessible streets is to improve access for local residents/visitors to the trails and to the various services offered by the City
(gas, food, accommodations etc.).
If there are any comments or suggestions on how we can further improve this proposal, please forward them to the Timmins Snowmobile Club, Timmins Police or your City Councillor.
Please ride safe and show all residents that we can make this trial period a success!
