Brookhaven is bringing back the street sweepers beginning 7 p.m. May 15. More than 58 lane miles of city streets will be scrubbed in the evenings and overnights in order to minimize traffic impact.
“Trash and debris in the roadway is unsightly, and unsafe. In addition to garbage and dirt, these trucks scoop up potential road hazards like hardware and other bits of metal that can puncture tires,” said Public Works Director Hari Karikaran. “We will only run the sweeper trucks overnight from 7 p.m. to 8 a.m. to ensure we don’t cause unnecessary traffic issues.”
The sweeper trucks will begin their work in the Caldwell Road and Redding Road area and transition to the route of the Brookhaven Bolt road race which takes place Saturday, May 19.
