Street sweeping to begin in Calgary neighbourhoods next week

Spring cleaning is in full force for many Calgarians, including city crews.

The city says street sweeping is set to start on Monday, April 15.

Many major roads already have sweepers out overnight, and it appears most thoroughfares like Crowchild Trail, Glenmore Trail, and Anderson Road, will be done by the end of the month.

Stoney Trail and Deerfoot Trail are already seeing sweeping as well, though those roads are maintained by the province, not the city.

The city says the spring cleanup program runs through to June, with community sweeping happening Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

More than 16,000 lane kilometres of paved roads are cleaned during this process, according to the city.

Calgarians can stay notified by watching for signs in their community, using the address lookup on the city’s website, or signing up for email and/or text notifications.
