Two state-of-the-art road sweepers have been purchased by Gedling Borough Council to boost cleanliness across the borough.
The new road sweepers will be arriving just in time for Keep Britain Tidy’s Great British Spring Clean, a nationwide campaign encouraging people to come together to help clean up their local communities.
The Swingo 200+ sweepers are equipped with cutting-edge technology to enhance street cleaning across the borough.
These advanced machines will tackle everything from footpaths and cycle paths to high-pressure cleaning and weed control.
The new sweepers reduce the time needed to cover large area and also use eco-friendly technology to cut emissions.
Councillor Marje Paling, Portfolio Holder for Environmental Services, said:
“We’re proud to introduce these new road sweepers as part of our ongoing commitment to keeping Gedling clean. Investing in high-quality street cleaning means a better environment for everyone. With the Great British Spring Clean just around the corner, this is the perfect time to encourage our communities to take pride in their local area.”
The sweepers are already in action, and residents can expect to see an improvement in street cleanliness in the coming weeks. As the Great British Spring Clean launched on 21st March, the council invites everyone to get involved and help make Gedling Borough a cleaner, greener place to live.
