2012 Residential Street Sweeping Schedule

Beginning on Monday, April 23, 2012 the City of Salem will begin city-wide street sweeping in its neighborhoods.

Residential street sweeping will take place April 23 – May 4, 2012 and once again on June 4-15, 2012.
Street sweepers will be in your neighborhood from 8:00AM to 5:00PM.

During that time period a No Parking Tow Zone area will be in effect. Temporary orange tow zones will be posted throughout your neighborhood and all cars must be removed from both sides of the street so that sweeping can take place.

Please remember to move your car off the street so it will not be towed.

Please note, you will be able to park your vehicles on:
Loring Avenue; Lafayette Street; Bridge Street; Boston Street; North Street; and Essex Street (the portion from Boston Street to Washington Street) on your designated sweep day.

Once you have seen that the sweeper has cleaned your street, you can move your vehicle back onto the roadway.
