Master Winter Sidewalk Maintenance

As temperatures drop, maintaining safe and accessible sidewalks becomes a top priority for cities, campuses, contractors, and municipalities. Whether you’re managing the walkways of a bustling downtown core, a sprawling college campus, or a local neighbourhood, ensuring that sidewalks are free from snow and ice is critical for public safety. Trackless Vehicles offers a suite of attachments designed to tackle the challenges of sidewalk snow removal and ice control.

The Double Trip Plow: Effective Snow Clearing

The first step in winter sidewalk maintenance is removing snow before it becomes compacted and icy. The Trackless Double Trip Plow is engineered to handle heavy snowfall, making it ideal for clearing sidewalks quickly and efficiently. Its tripping mechanism allows the blade to avoid damage when encountering obstacles, such as raised manholes or uneven sidewalk tiles—a crucial feature for urban sidewalks and college campuses with varying elevations.

Contractors who manage multiple sites with diverse sidewalk conditions also benefit from the plow’s durability and adaptability. With its ability to handle large volumes of snow, the Double Trip Plow is an essential tool for timely and effective snow removal.

The Snow Lion Ice-Breaker: Tackling Hard-Packed Ice

Once snow is cleared, ice can still pose a significant hazard. The Snow Lion Ice-Breaker is designed to address this challenge. Ideal for cities and universities with high pedestrian traffic, it uses multiple rows of steel teeth to break through ice layers bonded to sidewalk surfaces. This ensures that even the most stubborn ice can be removed, restoring safety and traction.

The Snow Lion Ice-Breaker is particularly useful in areas with fluctuating winter weather, where daytime melting and nighttime freezing create hazardous icy patches. Its ability to eliminate ice without damaging concrete makes it an efficient and reliable solution for long-term winter maintenance.

The Rear Mount Sidewalk Spreader: Preventing Ice Formation

After snow and ice are removed, preventing reformation is key. The Trackless Rear Mount Sidewalk Spreader distributes salt, sand, or other de-icing agents evenly across sidewalks. This ensures walkways remain ice-free for longer periods by reducing the likelihood of ice formation in high-traffic areas.

For municipalities managing extensive sidewalk networks, the Rear Mount Sidewalk Spreader is an indispensable tool for maintaining safety. It’s also ideal for campuses and contractors seeking an efficient method to prevent icy conditions without the labour-intensive process of manual spreading.
