After watching Montreal and other cities for several years digging out, this was the first time I recall seeing the big machines squeezing into alleyways to clean them out too. Going fwd was cool, but backing back up was nuts! lol. Respect to all these men!

Thank you men

Great video, brought me back to my younger life in St. Laurent and the streets after a snowstorm.

I BELIEVE MONTREAL HAS THE BEST SNOW REMOVAL OF ANY CITY. THEY NEVER FAIL TO DO THEIR JOBS!!!

It almost makes me want to plan a trip up there before a snowstorm to watch them work, but I think I'll stick to the comfort of my home office!

The road network of the city of Montreal includes 4,100 km of traffic lanes, 6,550 kilometers of sidewalks, 450 km of bike paths, and 200 km of highways. To be able to clear all of that in a matter of days it's pretty impressive.

Those graders sure scrape the pavement well! The snow removal crew puts on a good show!

Yep, Montreal always did a great job at scraping the pavement well, leaving no snow. I lived there from 1968-1998.

Great video! Merci mon ami! 🙂

Definitely always have a big respect for the plowers

Awesome Video Buddy!! Hope Comming More Videos from Snow Removal!!

the big problem with loaders with a blade is the lack of weight for the plow to really scrape,its why they use the graders,the loaders only push the snow.

Exactly. The guys on the sidewalk machines do good work. The twin auger loader is lots of fun.

Now that is snow removal

good job thanks you😄👍👷👷🚜🛻🦺

As you can see, no efforts are wasted here! picking up snow AND trashes at same time!

Love it

hope the city takes care of the operators with pay and rest that's not easy work you can really do some damage if your not paying attention to your surroundings

I've watched a few of these videos now, and it seems like alot of the movements are redundant or in some instances counter-productive. A grader windrowing to the center of the road, followed by the snowblower aiming at the windrow and a truck driving in the path the grader cleared would eliminate alot of the double handling. a loader with a U blade could follow inbetween the trucks to catch the crumbs and shovel em infront of the snow blower between trucks.

The D series is loader mounted but works the same as the T series, which is a self propelled unit and is the modern version of the original Sicard snow blower, another great invention from Quebec.

0:17 Almost took the lamp post out! I wonder how many times they DO hit something.

It's a lot. It happens. Especially when you have hundreds of streets to clear.

Question from the back of the room: I can safely presume that the dump trucks are contractors, but is the snow removal equipment owned by the city?

From what I've seen since I was young, it looks like the city is divided between city service teams and contractors. So you could have city plows and snowblowers loading contractor dump trucks or contrator snowblowers loading contractor dump truck. I rarely saw city dump trucks being used for this job.

I assume the CANBEC is the contractor or heavy equip. dealer?

Why is it so common for you to use wheelloaders for literally anything? Like Snowplowing and for the snowblower? Where I live you mostly see tractors using those implements.

I think it's mostly because they can use the loaders for construction projects in the summer, so they get used throughout the year.

The sheer amount of strength that those things have allow them to move very large amounts of snow , and once they gather up the snow they can detach the plow and hook up a bucket then move a snow bank if a snow thrower isn't able to handle it.

Durability,power and the fact you can put a lot more implements on a loader for this type of work and if one breaks down they can use the other loader to take its place.on the big snowblowers they used to have the Larue type but when ti broke down they had nothing to do ithe work now its just an impliment either loader or blower can break they can use others and cost also,many of these equipment are rentals for winter use.

6:09 What happened there? Speed bump?

The driver of wheeled bulldozers raked 2 garbage cans along with the snow, it was necessary to put them aside to an empty place where there is no snow.

Get ready for special design truck which can disllove ice into water. Machine will be costly but not costly processing charge. I have seen one truck which convert ice into water but I don't know how much it charge for processing ice into water. We have to work for converting ice into water at minimum cost. Jay bharat. Jay bharat.

so i've been watching a bunch of those vids, and tbh i don't think those guys have a fucking clue of what they are doing. all of that looks so amateurish and clumsy, its just beyond ridiculous.
