The City of Falls Church is scheduled to perform street sweeping around the City from Monday, Sept. 12 – Friday, Sept. 16 and is asking the community to move its vehicles off the streets the day their area is scheduled for street sweeping.

Doing so helps crews do a more efficient and effective job of preventing 200 – 250 tons of debris from entering local waterways. The September street sweeping schedule is as follows, but is subject to change for weather:

• Monday, Sept. 12 and Tuesday, Sept. 13: residential areas south of Broad Street
• Wednesday, Sept. 14 commercial areas and municipal parking areas
• Thursday, Sept. 15 and Friday, Sept. 16: residential areas north of Broad Street

Residents are asked to move vehicles off of residential streets scheduled for sweeping between 7 a.m. – 5 p.m. When cars are parked on the street, the effectiveness suffers greatly, as the greatest accumulation of debris and pollutants is in the gutter.
