Storm Slams Street Department with Cleanup
(posted Feb 1)
Speedway Street Commissioner Wendell Walters and his crew are now focused
on the upcoming winter storm. Walters has been watching the radar to track
the snow's intensity.
This week has been no easy task for the street department as they assisted
public safety by putting up barricades to protect residents and motorists
from fallen debris and electric wires after the tornado and straight line
winds whipped through town. By Wednesday, the street department was out
removing trees limbs from Elaine Street.
The street sweeper was also sent out to finish cleaning the streets of debris.
Walters reported the crew is also out picking up gray recycle bins that
were strewn across town due to the high winds. The department plans to
return the missing bins. Anyone in need of a bin or having extras as a
result of the storm should call the street department 246-4141.
