Red Deer's annual street cleaning program is underway, with crews starting in roundabouts to clear out winter debris.
On April 14, sweeping operations shift to overnight clearing of medians and boulevards, from 6 p.m. to 4 a.m.
Once completed, daytime downtown and residential street sweeping will begin.
Be sure to give crews plenty of space and slow down around street-sweeping equipment.
Residential Street Sweeping
Streets are swept from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Watch for No Parking signs in your neighbourhood.
