SNOW REMOVAL AND WINTER PARKING
Our town crews work as fast as possible to remove snow from streets and your cooperation is needed to ensure the job is done safely and effectively. If your car is parked on any street during the overnight winter parking ban, it will be ticketed. The fine is $50. We want to react to snowfall and clear the streets quickly. With the streets clear, roads will be less congested and drivers will be able to reach their destination easily and safely.
Now sorting is EASY AS

Lace up your skates, dust off the toboggans and snowboards and enjoy some outdoor winter fun. Located on Quinn Court (off Gunningsville Blvd.), Winter Wonderland Park is home to Riverview’s famous sliding hill, that bustles with activity when the snow comes to town. The 50-foot tall hill provides hours of family fun and exercise. You’ll find even more thrills on the outdoor rink, next to the sliding hill and parking lots. Admission is always free. For safety reasons, the sliding hill and skating rink are closed during hazardous weather conditions. It can be several days after a storm before the hill is deemed safe, due to the freezing of the hill. Please obey the locked gate. Find sliding hill conditions at townofriverview.ca/cancellations. Please note that motorized vehicles such as snowmobiles, ATVs, etc. are not allowed on the hill at any time.
