The City of Norfolk’s street sweeping program is designed to remove pollutants such as oil, grease, nutrients, and sediment from the roadway before entering the stormwater system. It supports Norfolk’s initiative for cleaner waterways by reducing pollution and nuisance flooding, minimizing stormwater runoff, and collecting approximately 6,682 tons of debris per year.

While the goal of the program is to ensure street sweeping occurs once per month for all neighborhoods, the program is currently experiencing delays due to long lead times on equipment repairs, hiring challenges, and inclement weather. The street sweeping schedule will be temporarily revised to a quarterly rotation until equipment challenges can be addressed. Areas with enforcement signage will continue to be swept monthly, and parking enforcement will not be suspended during this time.

This dataset reflects the recent changes in the street sweeping schedule, and shows a listing of the dates that curb in front of Norfolk addresses will be swept. The dataset will be updated at the beginning of each calendar year or as the street sweeping schedule changes.

This data is from five tide stations located in waterways throughout Norfolk: Elizabeth River Eastern Branch at Grandy Village, Little Creek at 20th Bay Street, Lafayette River at Mayflower Road, Mason Creek at Granby Street, and Elizabeth River Main Branch at Nauticus. This data will allow users to track and analyze tide levels in the City of Norfolk. The data is updated daily and encompasses a timeframe of September 30, 2020 to present.

Note: At the Mason Creek tide gauge, the water flows through a weir system (small dam) that alters the flow characteristics of the water; data from this tide station will differ from the other four tide stations.
