Road Maintenance
Highway maintenance and repairs are provided by private maintenance companies contracted by the Ministry of Transportation of Infrastructure. Highways and bridges are monitored for the following hazards:
- fallen trees and other debris
- dead animals
- defective signs
- bridge damage
- flooding, washouts, mudslides and avalanches
- snow and ice
Reporting a Problem
If you spot a hazard on the highway, immediately report it to the service area’s maintenance contractor.

Culverts
Culvert maintenance depends on where the culvert is located. Culverts located on a maintained road are the road maintenance contractor’s responsibility. Culverts located on a rural property are a property owner's responsibility and you must make sure that both the culvert pipe inlet and outlet are free of debris. This includes clearing snow and ice in the winter whenever possible.
