Make plans for cut broom removal before you cut!  Unfortunately, MOTI is not able to remove broom cut on the highways.  If you contact Broombusters in advance, sometimes we can help.  At the very least, we can offer advice on cut broom disposal.  To be a Broombuster, contact Broombusters first!  Cut at your own risk. Be safe and have fun!

AREAS NEEDING TO BE CUT OR MAINTAINED: 
With the broom only just beginning to bloom it is difficult to see which areas need our attention.  This was the list from last year so I am assuming most will need some maintenance again this year.  The larger of these areas will be put on our Community Cut schedule as the season progresses.  If you would like to take on an area as your project for May it would be greatly appreciated.  A lot of these streets have been maintained over the years, with little bits here and there.  If your street is not on the list and in need of our attention, please let me know!
