Between 7 am (Sundays and public holidays from 8 am) and 7:30 pm, remove snow and ice without delay once the snowfall stops or ice forms.
Keep pavements clear of snow to a width of 0.80 m, and the gutters too; narrower pavements across their full width. Where there is no pavement, keep a 0.80 m strip clear from the usable edge of the road; in pedestrian shopping streets, clear and grit a 1.50 m strip from the property line.
Grit pavements and the necessary crossings in icy or snowy conditions. Salt and other de-icers are banned in principle, allowed only in exceptional cases such as freezing rain or at dangerous spots such as steps and ramps; never salt on tree pits or planted areas.
Owners are responsible for clearing and gritting the pavements and roads marked in the street directory. Fines up to €500.
