What the current Greater Sudbury winter source says
Greater Sudbury publishes a road-clearing index with separate service targets for roads, sidewalks and bus stops. Sidewalk crews are deployed at the city’s stated accumulation threshold and work toward a post-storm service target rather than relying on a generic homeowner-only rule.

Corner properties should check every public frontage, not just the sidewalk at the front door. Commercial properties may also have a different service level or deadline.
