The blitz is designed to collect the bulk of the debris left behind over winter, which in turn increases efficiency and cost effectiveness of the City Wide Neighbourhood Sweeping program. The Blitz will also remove sand and debris from medians where snow was stored. Sweepers will go around parked vehicles during the Blitz program; parking enforcement will not be applied.

If the weather cooperates, neighborhood curb-to-curb street sweeping will start Sunday, May 1. Signs will guide you to move your vehicles off the road.
