Flood Watch Issued

A Flood Watch is being issued for local watercourses within the jurisdiction of Otonabee Conservation, excluding the Trent-Severn Waterway. 

A Flood Watch is in effect across the region as forecasted warm temperatures and rainfall over the coming week, combined with an above-average snowpack, are expected to produce substantial runoff. This may lead to rapidly rising water levels and flows in local watercourses, increasing the potential for flooding.

Half Load Restrictions

Half-load restrictions in the Township of Selwyn will begin Sunday, March 1, 2026.

To protect our road network during the spring thaw, half-load restrictions are implemented annually beginning March 1, in accordance with the Highway Traffic Act. These measures help prevent road damage when municipal roads are most vulnerable to heavy vehicle traffic. 

During this period, vehicles are limited to a maximum of 5 tonnes per axle, and truck and commercial transport access may be restricted in affected areas. 

Restrictions remain in effect until April 30, 2026, unless otherwise announced. 

Thank you for your cooperation in helping to preserve our roads.
