## Street and driveway rules

Why a car that sits for months is better off in storage here. Summaries of official city pages, October 2026.

- From November 15 to April 1, a winter weather parking ban is declared for freezing rain or a forecast of 7 cm of snow or more. Overnight bans run 7 pm to 7 am. Vehicles without a residential permit can be towed. (source: https://ottawa.ca/en/parking-roads-and-travel/parking/winter-parking/winter-weather-parking-bans)
- No vehicle in a wrecked, discarded, dismantled, inoperative or abandoned condition may be parked, stored or left in a yard (Property Standards By-law 2013-416, s.6(9)). (source: https://documents.ottawa.ca/sites/default/files/2013_416_en.pdf)
