Street Sweeping

The goal is to sweep each route every other month during the first full week of the month and to sweep Olympic Avenue every Friday morning. The schedule however is subject to change if higher priority projects or if emergencies come up, which does occur. Beginning in November, the sweeper may operate every day or as needed to keep up with the falling leaves. Try using the City's custom web application. Zoom in to see the routes. Select routes to get information and swipe the bottom border to see the weekly schedule.
