Description

Is it possible for DPW to implement proactive regularly scheduled street sweeping of all bike lanes city wide, instead of the current reactive system where sweeping is done by request when enough debris/glass/etc builds up?

If possible, this would ideally happen the day after recycling pickup on all regular routes. Most (but not all) of the broken glass tends to be from dropped recycling, so from a timing perspective weekly sweeps on whatever day follows recycling pickup would make the most sense.

As a daily commuter, my observation is that enough debris of different kinds builds up weekly to warrant sweeping, and we're not talking about a lot of road miles that would need to be covered.
