Whole Street Cleanse Programme

The Whole Street Cleanse Programme (formerly named Deep Cleanse) was developed to compliment other seasonal programmes, such as the Weeding and Leafing Programmes. It aims to deliver a holistic cleansing and enforcement programme targeted at certain locations, which have been identified as requiring dedicated action to bring them up to the highest cleansing standard. These include roads that have high levels of traffic flow or have a permanent parked vehicle presence, which restricts cleansing vehicles being able to access the channels to clear out debris.

To enable the roads to be ‘deep cleansed’, we may obtain temporary road closures or parking suspensions to allow vehicles to access the channels that are often obstructed with parked vehicles.

You can find our current Whole Street Cleanse Programme here.

The dates provided for the WSC Programme are indicative only and are subject to change. They are based on a range of factors including weather conditions and unforeseen site constraints. While every effort will be made to adhere to these timelines, the programme may be adjusted as necessary to ensure safe and efficient delivery.

The works carried out through this method of cleansing can include:

• mechanical and manual cleansing,
• traffic and parking restrictions and/or road closures,
• graffiti teams,
• gully cleansing,
• environmental officers addressing overgrown vegetation and unlawfully placed domestic and trade waste and other enforcement action,
• weed or leaf removal.
