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!

Some HISTORY and a WELCOME:

 Sooke is starting year #2 in mid-April.  We hope you can join us!  In 1850, the first Scotch broom was brought to Vancouver Island – to SOOKE! by Captain Walter Grant. Thanks Captain.  But we can turn things around.  Join us!
