We had so much fun doing a “Name that Truck”contest and “touch a truck” event with our Public Works Department!
Did you know that street sweepers have steering wheels on both sides of the truck?! The kids found double the horns to honk! ‼️ Smiles for all!

REMINDER: Downtown Street Sweeping Continues Tomorrow

Thank you to everyone who moved their vehicles this morning, it made a big difference and helped our Public Works crews get the job done quickly and efficiently!

Be on the lookout for “Lightning McClean," our street sweeper, proudly named by our City of Augusta Childcare- Maine kiddos!

Tomorrow, Wednesday, May 6th starting at 5:00 AM: Augusta Public Works will be sweeping Commercial Street. Please do not park on Commercial Street during this time.

Vehicles should be moved to other available parking areas, including the Dickman Street Parking Garage, the Center Railroad Lot between Winthrop and Bridge Streets, or Mill Park. We appreciate everyone’s continued cooperation as we wrap up downtown sweeping. Hoping for another smooth morning tomorrow!
