Help keep catch basins clear

Report water ponding to the City at 905-832-2281

Catch basins are stormwater drains located in the road, and they give melting snow and rainwater somewhere to drain. But if a catch basin is blocked or covered by snow, ice or debris, water can pool and flood on the street. 

We need your help clearing catch basins!

The resident living closest to a catch basin is encouraged to help clear it of snow, ice and debris, if it’s safe to do so. If you’re shovelling snow, check to see if the catch basin by your home is covered or blocked.

If you see water ponding or flooding on the street near a catch basin, call the City at 905-832-2281 or email service@vaughan.ca. 

By doing your part this winter, you’ll be making a positive difference in keeping the community safe. For information about the City’s winter maintenance operations, visit vaughan.ca/snow.
