Thanks to our friends at Onondaga County Traffic Safety Advisory Board. There are many reasons why to keep grass (and leaves in fall) out of the street, including fewer sewer clogs!

As mowing season is in full swing, grass clippings left on roadways can create hazardous conditions, particularly for motorcyclists and bicyclists. When wet, grass clippings can become as slippery as ice, increasing the risk of crashes and injuries. They can also clog storm drains and create additional roadway maintenance concerns.

Keep grass clippings out of the roadway and dispose of them properly to keep our roads safe!
