NORMAL – As central Illinois heads into the winter, the Town of Normal begins fall leaf cleanup on Monday.
According to a news release, Normal crews are spending around eight weeks collecting leaves in zones.
The order of the zone collection depends on how quickly leaves fall, which is determined by the age of the trees in an area.
“The speed of leaf collection depends on several factors including volume, weather, and potential equipment malfunction,” the town said in a news release. “Following Town of Normal guidelines helps ensure the work is done efficiently and effectively.”
Work crews are encouraging residents not to park in front of leaf piles.
An interactive map to find where crews are working can be found at normal.org.
