Street Sweeping

​​​​​​​​Sand and debris are swept from City roads during the spring and summer to keep streets and sewers clean.​ This prevents materials from clogging the storm se​wers, and provides a safe and clean driving surface.​

During the Spring Sweeping Program; salt, sand, and debris accumulated ove​r the winter season are swept from all City of Brampton streets. The Spring Sweeping program includes:

  • All City-owned roads with a top coat of asphalt, including bridges, catch basins and gutters.
  • Hard-surfaced boulevards and medians.
  • Sidewalks and walkways plowed by the City during the winter.
  • Parking lots at City of Brampton Recreation Centres and other City facilities.
  • Country roads without curbs are flushed and/or swept as required.

Resident Notice

  • ​​​​Keep vehicles off the street to avoid obstructing the operations and allowing the sweeper to sweep the roadway from curb to curb.
  • Place garbage containers and recycling boxes far enough from the roadway on collection days.​


The Summer Sweeping Program occurs from the end of the Spring Program to the Thanksgiving long weekend. Summer sweeping is broken down into three rounds:
