An illustration for this edition's lead story: Curbside Sweepers Roll Out Across Neighborhoods Today

Rakes and leaf blowers got their first serious workout of the season over the weekend, but municipal sweepers are rolling out this morning to lend a hand. Clear out those gutter lines and settle in for a bright, brisk autumn week ahead.


The Lead

Township public works crews are firing up the heavy street sweepers this morning to launch the mid-October residential sweep across neighborhood roads. With autumn foliage dropping quickly over the weekend, street gutters and storm inlets have filled with dry leaves, pine needles, and runoff debris.

Township officials ask neighbors along this week's scheduled routes to park family vehicles in driveways and pull trash bins, yard waste bags, and portable basketball hoops well back from the curb edge. Giving the sweeper operators uninterrupted access along curb lines prevents leaf buildup that typically clogs storm grates and floods residential intersections during late-autumn downpours. Street sweepers will rotate through designated zones from morning through mid-afternoon all week. A quick check of the driveway this morning keeps the curb clear and ensures neighborhood drainage flows freely through the next big storm.
