The Public Works Department is located at 74 Circle Drive, Sherose Island, Nova Scotia. The main functions of this department are as follows:

• Property Maintenance and Repair

The Province of Nova Scotia has their own standards for snow clearing on provincial roads and highways. During storms they focus on keeping the province's major highways passable. After a storm ends, they work to clear all the roads within 24 hours or sooner. The image below outlines the province's service times:
