Note the Township is not responsible for the maintenance of Hwy 17 or Hwy 630. These provincial highways are the responsiblity of the Ministry of Transportation.

The Municipality of Calvin follows the Municipal Mininum Maintenance Standards [PDF: 145 KB] to guide its road maintenance.
During the winter period, we require that no vehicle be parked overnight within the Municipal road allowance. It is the responsibility of the home-owner to ensure that snow removed from their driveway be pushed away from the road and be cleared away from the snow plow route on road shoulders as per By-Law 2004-013. See also the Notice from Calvin Roads Department issued March 2016.
