Street Sweeping and Flushing

Street Sweeper

Street Sweeping and flushing commences every year approximately March 1^st and runs until approximately October 31^st.

Street Sweeper/Flusher Truck

A sweeper/flusher truck is out on the streets daily to clean the gutters of debris and leaves; this process keeps the catch basins clean and ready for the storm water.
It takes about 2-3 weeks for the trucks to cover the City’s entire road network.

Vactor Truck

A Vactor truck cleans every storm collector in the City every 3-4 years. Keeping the storm collectors clean helps prevent and reduce the possibility of flooding.
Video inspections are also conducted by crew members and contractors to make sure there are no problems with the underground infrastructure (sewer pipes and water mains).
