Clear the Way: Help Keep Edson’s Sidewalks Safe
Posted on
Overgrown hedges, branches, and clutter can make sidewalks unsafe—especially for children, seniors, and those using mobility devices. They can also reduce visibility for drivers.
Under the Town of Edson’s Community Standards Bylaw, property owners are responsible for keeping sidewalks adjacent to their homes or businesses clear of obstructions. It’s not just about curb appeal. It’s about safety, accessibility, and courtesy.
A Few Quick Fixes Go a Long Way:
- Trim trees and shrubs that hang over sidewalks
- Ensure space for safe walking and maneuvering
- Improve visibility for both foot and vehicle traffic
Let’s work together to protect our community. A well-maintained sidewalk means safer streets, fewer accidents, and a more welcoming town.
