The Public Works Department would like to announce the start of it's Spring roadside sweeping program. Beginning on March 31st street sweepers will begin sweeping main roads throughout town and then will move off into subdivisions.
Public Works is asking for your assistance and patience as this program continues through the months of April and May. Each week Public Works will post on its' web site where street sweeping can be expected. We ask that residents do not park vehicles along the road during this process because street sweepers will not return once they have left an area. Weather permitting, we will try and get to your street as fast as possible. You may see sweepers in your area on Saturdays as well. Please be patient until we get to your area. Even though sweepers use water during the sweeping process some dust will be generated. You will also notice that after the first pass there may be some debris
still left behind. The street sweeper will make a number of passes until the street is completely swept.
You can assist Public Works by sweeping any winter sand from your driveway, curbing or sidewalk into the gutter area. Please do not consider this an invitation to clean your entire yard. The street sweeper cannot and will not pick up stones, branches, leaves or other foreign matter.
PLEASE DO NOT SWEEP DRIVEWAYS/ SIDEWALKS ONTO THE ROAD ONCE YOUR ROAD IS SWEPT.
If you have any questions you may either email DPW at "dpw@town.lynnfield.ma.us" or call the DPW at 781-334-9500 during normal business hours. You may also check the DPW web site each week for any updates. |
