The City’s street sweeping program is currently underway and will run through to mid-June.
City crews have started sweeping sidewalks, boulevards, medians and some streets throughout the city. Currently, business centres and the Sudbury Rocks Marathon route are areas of high priority. Areas not listed under the contractor's routes are swept by City crews, including the downtown core.
The City’s street sweeping contract is into its third year with contractors A & G The Road Cleaners Ltd. and Bruell Contracting Ltd. These contractors are outfitted with a fleet of specialized street sweeping equipment needed to complete operations in a timely and efficient manner.
Contractors are scheduled to begin operations the week of April 25, weather permitting. The tentative schedule is as follows:
A & G The Road Cleaners Ltd.
April 25 to May 6 – Sudbury Rocks marathon route, Kingsway, and part of the Flour Mill, downtown and the area around the former Hospital site
May 9 to May 20 - New Sudbury, Minnow Lake and Moonlight Area
