Canada Post is issuing a red delivery service alert for Owen Sound and surrounding areas due to severe winter conditions in the area.
A red service alert means delivery for the day is suspended and will resume once conditions improve and it’s safe to do so.
An alert can be issued for a particular community or an entire province, depending on the weather event.
Canada Post is also encouraging customers to clear the ice from their walkways, stairs, and driveways, to ensure safe access to the front door for both their visitors, as well as their mail carriers, when service resumes.
