Operation Clean Sweep
We all know that at times, Cleveland’s bike lanes can gather some serious crud. The City makes it’s best efforts to remove debris – but we see this pedal-powered sweeper as a way to help bridge the gap and keep common routes cleaner and safer more often.
Our social media followers have been sending us videos of these sweepers in action in other cities – and we have been trying to secure funding to purchase one for the past several months. But – our last attempt failed – so we’re crowdfunding the dollars to put one of these to work on our streets! It’s time to turn that enthuiasm into action by helping us raise the funds.
Production time is 8 weeks from order date – the sooner we hit our goal – the sooner we can put this thing to work!

If we’re successful, we’ll put together a schedule and route for this sweeper to run on a weekly basis using a bit of staff time and volunteer efforts of our members willing to step up and take part in the program.
