Weather permitting, street sweeping in 麻豆精选 should be completed by mid-May.

Crews are expected to be out seven days a week, 20 hours a day sweeping more than 2,100 lane kilometres, 390 kilometres of bike lanes, 440 kilometres of sidewalks and 35,000 square metres of medians. 

鈥淲e have seven large road sweepers, six municipal tractors, three water trucks, two dump trucks, two dedicated sidewalk sweepers and 40 staff working on this year鈥檚 annual sweep,鈥 said Andrew Schwerdtfeger, roadways operations manager. 

Progress and route priorities are published weekly on the city鈥檚 website. Signage restricting on-street parking will be placed at least 24 hours before an area is scheduled to be swept.

Residents can help by moving vehicles off the road as well as items such as basketball hoops.
