Stay safe around stormwater ponds this winter

Do you have a stormwater management pond in your neighbourhood? Vaughan is home to more than 150 of these human-made ponds, which are designed to temporarily hold water before releasing it back into the environment at a controlled rate. While they are nice to look at on a winter walk, they are not intended – or safe – for recreational use!

 

Stay safe all winter long

While you might be spending more time inside during the colder months, it’s still important to keep winter safety top of mind. That’s why Vaughan Fire and Rescue Service (VFRS) is providing essential tips to keep you and your family safe throughout the snowy season.
