Street sweeping update – week of April 27, 2020

Crews continue with street cleaning efforts taking place throughout late April/early May. During the week of April 27, street sweepers will be in the areas of Demamiel Creek/Sunriver, Throup, & Church Roads, advancing to the west on the north side of Sooke Road as areas are completed.

Sooke residents are asked to proactively park their vehicles off of streets as much as possible. Vehicles that remain on the street will hinder overall cleanup efforts as sweepers will be required to move around and leave debris that might otherwise be cleared.

Contracted road maintenance crews do not have a set schedule as the speed with which they progress depends on many factors. Weekly updates will be provided on the front page of www.sooke.ca and on the District’s Twitter account @SookeCa, outlining a phased progression throughout the community. Work will be completed from approximately 5:00 am – 2:30 p.m. and will begin on April 21 on the west side of Sooke River, covering streets north of Highway 14.

If parking off-street is not an option, residents who see or hear street sweepers arriving in their neighbourhood are asked to move their vehicles temporarily as crews approach.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation and assistance in beautifying our community.
