Spring Clean-up: Calgary's Street Sweeping Program

What You Can Do to Help

The City of Calgary's street sweeping program helps keep our streets clean and free of debris. Here's what you can do to help:

• Park your car off the street on sweeping days. This will allow the sweepers to clean the entire street, including the curb and gutter.
• Move any garbage cans or recycling bins off the street. Sweepers can't clean around obstacles, so it's important to move them out of the way.
• Sweep your sidewalk and driveway. This will help to reduce the amount of debris that gets on the street.

Street Sweeping Schedule

The street sweeping schedule is available online. You can search by your address to find out when your street will be swept.

Parking Bans

On sweeping days, there will be parking bans in effect on the streets that are being swept. Vehicles that are parked on the street during a parking ban may be ticketed or towed.

Benefits of Street Sweeping

Street sweeping has a number of benefits, including:

• Improved air quality. Street sweeping removes dust and other pollutants from the air.
• Reduced flooding. Street sweeping helps to keep storm drains clear, which can reduce flooding during heavy rains.
• Improved appearance. Clean streets make our city look more attractive.
