Canada Post has removed the "yellow" service alert on mail service in New West and Burnaby.

The two cities were among multiple municipalities under yellow alerts — meaning possible delays in delivery — during yesterday's heavy snow.

Today (Wednesday, March 1), Canada Post announced it's restored regular service in both communities and in some other areas under yellow alerts yesterday.

Yellow alerts remain in place in some communities, including:

  • Bowen Island (issued on Feb. 28)
  • Pemberton (issued on Feb. 28)
  • Squamish (issued on Feb. 28)
  • Whistler (issued on Feb. 28)
  • Coquitlam (issued on Feb. 27)
  • Port Coquitlam (issued on Feb. 27)
  • Port Moody (issued on Feb. 27)
  • East Vancouver Island (issued on Feb. 23)

Several communities that were under "red alert" yesterday, meaning suspended delivery, are now on yellow alert instead. Those cities include:

  • Delta
  • Duncan
  • Langley
  • North Vancouver (upgraded from a yellow)
  • South Vancouver
  • Surrey
  • White Rock
