Aurora’s street sweeping and flushing will begin April 1, 2024 (weather permitting). Sweeping crews will be out between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. 

To assist us in this service, we ask residents:

  • Please do not push debris or leaves onto the roadway
  • Please refrain from parking on the street during sweeping hours
  • Ensure that all basketball nets or other objects are not on the road or hanging over the curb
  • Please do not place your recycling and garbage bins on the roadway

Following the initial sweep of every street, sidewalk, walkways, boulevards pathways and islands, operators will be back around a second time to pick up anything that was missed or left behind. We expect to have every street completed within 4 to 6 weeks (weather depending). 

Street sweeping within construction areas is the responsibility of developers.

For more information call 905-727-1375.


Frequently Asked Questions about Street and Sidewalk Sweeping

Which streets and sidewalks will be swept?

All streets and sidewalks that are owned and assumed by the Town will be swept.

Streets in new subdivisions with base course asphalt, sidewalks not continuously connected or under construction, will be the responsibility of the subdivision developer.

Private streets and sidewalks are the responsibility of the condominium/townhouse development owner.

How can residents help?

For effective sweeping, we need to get to the curb and sidewalk without interference. To help with that please:

  • Try to avoid Monday to Friday daytime parking on your street, if possible
  • Do not park vehicles over the curb or sidewalk
  • Place your garbage, recycling or yard waste on your driveway, away from the curb
  • Do not place basket ball nets on the road or hanging over the curb

Remember safety is important for everyone, please watch children carefully when the sweepers are on the roadway.

When will the sweeping be finished?

The spring street sweeping program typically takes up to six weeks to complete but may be delayed by weather, parked vehicles or excessive amounts of winter sand or debris.

We appreciate your cooperation and assistance in keeping Aurora's streets and sidewalks clean and safe. For further information, please contact the Town at 905-727-1375.​
