The sweeping season begins approximately the third week in March of each year.

With 118 miles of road, and the need to sweep up and down both sides — often more than once — our team ends up covering well over 250 miles in total. Because the sweeper moves at 6–8 mph, and our crew must balance breakdowns, weather, and other essential Town duties, the full sweeping program takes many months to complete.
