Street Sweeping

The City of Westland performs street sweeping every year in order to help clean up the roads of debris for safer driving conditions and to make sure that water can drain properly from the roads.  Signs will be placed in the areas being swept prior to sweeping and will be removed when the route is complete.  For efficient sweeping, we ask that residents keep their vehicles off the street during the sweeping.  Check the City calendar for this year's street sweeping schedule.
