Street sweeping starts every spring to clear sand and debris left behind from winter. Sweeping vehicles are equipped with dust suppression filters; however, some airborne dust is normal and cannot be avoided.
How you can help
- Do not sweep the gutter or edge of road material into a pile
- Please refrain from sweeping your driveway and sidewalk debris onto the roadway
- Use caution when passing or travelling near sweeping equipment
- Avoid parking on the road when sweepers are in your area
Benefits of street sweeping
- Improves road safety for vehicles, pedestrians, runners, and cyclists
- Protects the environment by reducing the amount of material that is washed away into our storm sewer system which leads to rivers, streams, and creeks
- Enhances curb appeal and keeps our community and business areas clean and attractive
Hours of operation
Although sweepers' hours of operation may vary, most sweeping will be carried out on weekdays between 6:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
