Street Sweeping Underway
Now through January 30, 2026

From now through January 30, 2026, San Ramon streets will be swept weekly (up to 4x/month) to manage the extra fall leaves.

Residential streets are swept between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Your regular sweeping day won’t change, but sweepers may come later than usual.

Help us keep San Ramon clean:

If a street sweeper isn’t sweeping, it’s probably full of leaves and heading to dump the leaves.
It’ll be back to clean once done!
