Following the significant snowfall received on December 29, 2025, combined with blowing snow and reduced visibility on December 30, 2025, the City of Timmins’ transportation network remains in severe winter condition.

The City is currently under a Significant Weather Event as defined by the Minimum Maintenance Standards for Municipal Highways (Ontario Regulation 239/02). At this time, some residential and rural roads remain impassable. The City’s Connecting Link is reduced to a single eastbound lane, with a single lane in each direction in the narrow four-lane sections of Algonquin Blvd. and King St. Nearly all sidewalks are currently obstructed.

The City of Timmins, Public Works Dept. is actively responding to these conditions. The immediate priority is to ensure that all roads are open and passable and lane widths are re-established on the Connecting Link. Once complete, crews will focus on widening high volume roads and collector roads like Airport Rd., arterial routes like Hwy. 67 (Municipal Rd), followed by residential roads. Sidewalk maintenance will be delayed, with crews clearing high-volume pedestrian areas first.

To support these efforts, the City of Timmins is reminding residents that under the municipal Traffic By-Law, blocking of traffic is prohibited, including parking in the roadway so as to prevent the movement of vehicles. With some residential roads limited to one lane, it is important that residents do not park in the plowed section of the road. Cooperation is critical to allow snowplows and heavy equipment to operate safely and efficiently.

All scheduled snow removal has been suspended. Public Works crews will focus on widening streets and travel lanes. Cuts will be made to snow banks to make space in the roadway. Priority will be given to areas with limited snow storage, high-traffic collector roads, and bus routes. “Road Closed” signage will be posted during active operations.

Snow removal in Schumacher will require residents to temporarily move their vehicles off the roadway to allow crews to complete snow removal and additional plowing. Public Works will begin snow removal in Schumacher on Monday, January 5, 2026, starting on Brundy Ave., Croatia Ave., Grant St., Father Costello Dr. and Vipond Rd. This schedule is intended to provide residents with sufficient time to move their vehicles in advance of operations.

Residents are also reminded that placing snow from private driveways and walkways onto City streets and sidewalks is prohibited under City of Timmins By-law 1993-4162. Moving snow from a driveway onto roadways or sidewalks can create safety hazards, obstruct pedestrian traffic, and reduce visibility for drivers.

Contractors not currently on the City’s equipment registry who wish to provide snow removal or plowing support can contact Service Timmins directly at 705-264-1331 or by email to [email protected].

The City of Timmins thanks residents for their continued patience and cooperation as crews work to restore road conditions following this significant storm.

Timmins City Council has approved the City’s 2026 Fleet Program with a capital investment of $2,953,000 to replace high-use vehicles that are essential to road and winter maintenance, utilities work, and traffic safety operations. The investment will help to improve operational efficiency in the Public Works and Public Utilities Departments, ensuring that City can maintain core service levels throughout the year.

As outlined in the report to Council, aging fleet assets have contributed to service disruptions, higher maintenance costs, and an increasing reliance on temporary rental units. In 2026, the City will add a plow truck, sand truck, utility service truck, loader mounted snowblower, asphalt hot box, six TC-12 traffic signs to improve safe work zone operations, and 18 light vehicles to reduce long-term rental costs.

In addition to fleet replacements, Council has also approved a 5% increase to internal fleet charge-out rates for 2026. The adjustment aligns with ongoing efforts to modernize internal equipment rental rates and ensure sufficient revenue generation for the City’s equipment replacement fund. Internal charge-out rates refer to the fees charged by the Fleet Division, which owns and maintains the City’s vehicles and equipment, to other departments for the use of equipment and vehicles. The fees collected help offset the cost for maintenance, repairs, and future equipment replacements.

All surplus equipment that is replaced through the Fleet Program is traded or sold through online auction process.

The Timmins Museum: National Exhibition Centre is proud to announce the relaunch of its Lifetime Membership List, a permanent recognition of individuals whose long-standing dedication, passion, and contributions have helped shape the Museum into a cornerstone of local heritage and cultural enrichment.

The new Lifetime Membership List honours individuals whose ongoing commitment has supported the preservation of Timmins’ history, the advancement of arts and culture, and the growth of the Museum as a vital community institution. This recognition will be featured both on the Museum’s website and on a permanent physical display within the building. Each Lifetime Member will also receive an official certificate and a lifetime museum membership — a small gesture of gratitude for their extraordinary support.

“Our Lifetime Members are more than patrons — they are the heartbeat of our museum,” said Andrew Marks, Museum Advisory Committee Chair. “Through decades of visits, contributions, and unwavering enthusiasm, they have ensured that our history, culture, and creativity continue to thrive. A museum is not built by walls or collections alone, but by a community of people who care deeply about preserving the past and shaping the future.”

This year’s inductees into the Timmins Museum Lifetime Membership List are:

Diane Armstrong
A founding member of the Timmins Museum, Diane Armstrong has dedicated her life to documenting the region’s history and preserving significant Timmins artwork and artifacts. Her leadership in the Hollinger House preservation project stands among her many accomplishments. Diane has always been — and will always remain — one of the Museum’s most devoted champions.

Charlene & Michael J. J. Doody
Long-time residents of Timmins, now living closer to family in the south, Charlene and Michael Doody have been influential community builders and loyal supporters of the Museum. Michael, a former Mayor and City Councillor, served for many years as Chair of the Museum Advisory Committee, guiding the institution’s development and inspiring the next generation of community leaders.

Mary Gardner
A respected member of the Museum Advisory Committee for many years, Mary Gardner’s thoughtful guidance and steadfast dedication have played a key role in shaping the Museum’s direction. An artist at heart and one of the Museum’s greatest ambassadors, Mary’s support for Timmins’ rich history has been invaluable.

Sylvia Martin
Originally from the United Kingdom, Sylvia made her way to Canada where she built a life dedicated to education, creativity, and community. A former teacher with a lifelong passion for the arts, she became a founding member of the Timmins Symphony Orchestra (still active today) and later established the Tapestry Guild and the Spinners and Weavers, creating spaces for local artists and makers to connect and share their skills. An accomplished and active weaver Sylvia continues to teach the art of weaving to people of all ages, inspiring other with her knowledge, patience, and love for the craft. Her greatest goal is to ensure that these timeless art forms continue to thrive – passed down and celebrated by generations to come.

The launch of the Lifetime Membership List marks a meaningful milestone in celebrating the individuals whose efforts ensure that the Timmins Museum remains a vibrant, living legacy for generations to come.

City Council has approved the 2026 water and wastewater budget with an annual increase of 5.53%. This increase follows the City’s 10-year financial plan, including a 1% capital levy to help fund necessary water and wastewater capital projects. For an average five-room home, this represents an increase of $27 for water, $40 for wastewater, and a $15.61 capital levy contribution, for a total increase of $82.61 for municipal services. Each month, the same five-room household will pay approximately $6.88 more on their utility bill compared to last year.

In 2026, the City has budgeted approximately $8.1 million net expenditures for capital water and wastewater projects after all deductions. Included in the approved budget is the two-year Tisdale Reservoir replacement project, subdivision development phased over the next three years, and the Bob’s Lake Lagoon diversion and system upgrades. Underground water and wastewater infrastructure will also be replaced along Segment 9 of the Connecting Link from Brunette Rd. to Hwy. 655, and Segment 13 from Crawford St. to the Porcupine River Bridge.

The City’s water infrastructure plans ensure that essential services can meet future population and capacity demands. These investments help maintain and improve system reliability, address aging infrastructure, and prepare for forecasted development. Currently, the City manages approximately 220 km of watermains and 181 km of sanitary sewer mains.

The full long-term financial plan for water and wastewater available on the City of Timmins website under Our Services > Water and Sewer.
