Winnipeg is set to undergo a heavy-duty spring cleaning.
Beginning Sunday night and continuing over five or six weeks, city crews will be cleaning Winnipeg’s entire street network — including bridges, sidewalks, active transportation pathways, boulevards and medians.
The operation, which will involve about 500 workers, will also include cleaning up litter in city parks.
Residents need to be aware of when their street is scheduled for sweeping, as you can be dinged with a $150 parking ticket and/or a tow if you’re blocking city cleanup equipment.
