Street Sweeping Schedule

The snow is gone and it’s time to clean the streets.

The City of Merritt Road Sweeping Program begins mid-March, beginning with priority areas like the City Centre and parking lots.

Starting Monday, March 31, 2025, street sweeping efforts will move into the residential areas, commencing with a week in the Bench area and then moving east to the Grandview/Airport area the following week, before doing the southern neighbourhoods in the subsequent weeks.

Note that temperatures are required to be above zero degrees for the sweeper to work since the sweeper requires water. A unforeseen cold snap may change this schedule.

If you wish to help the street sweeper, move vehicles off the road.  If you are sweeping debris from your property onto the roadway, please do not create piles.

A reminder for drivers to obey all traffic warning signage that the sweeper is in the area and to slow down when approaching equipment and workers.

The City of Merritt thanks community members for their patience during this time.

Public Works is responsible for maintenance of municipal roads (not repair of provincial highways or bridges).  They are also responsible for municipal street signage, utilities, sewer, water, waste collection, and parks, cemetery, and facility maintenance.
