2023 Street Sweeper Schedule

In accordance with the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit issued by the PA Department of Environmental Protection, Jenkintown Borough is required to implement good housekeeping strategies to prevent pollution in stormwater runoff from municipal operations, including roadways. Pollutants collect on the Borough’s roads between rain events from vehicle emissions, winter deicing operations, trash, road wear and tear, and grass clippings from adjacent properties.

This year’s schedule began on Monday June 5th in the Business District and along York Road and has begun in the residential areas in town on Thursday, July 6th. The 2023 schedule and map provided here show the dates your street will be cleaned. The schedule and map are available on the Borough website https://jenkintownboro.com/street-sweeper-route/. The street cleaning can be more thorough and complete if vehicles are not on the street when the street is cleaned. Much like when there is a snow storm, residents with driveways are asked to use them so the entire street can be cleaned on that day. Read More »
