Public Advisory: Early Studded Tire Use Permitted

Service NL advises the public that studded tires can be put on vehicles effective today (Friday, October 21).

In previous years, the usual start date for studded tire usage was November 1. However, the earlier date this year is due to adverse weather conditions in some parts of the province and the potential for bad weather.
