Mayor Joyce Craig and the Manchester Department of Public Works (DPW) are celebrating World Environment Day by partnering with Pan Am Railways to host a Community Clean-up along the downtown railroad on Saturday, June 5th.
The Clean-up will last from 9:00am to 2:00pm and railroad traffic will be paused during this time. DPW trucks and staff will begin at the following locations:
1. Bedford Street east of the Mill Girl Stairs.
2. Parking lot on the corner of Granite and Canal St. near WMUR.
Each site will have DPW staffers and vehicles to provide clean-up materials, such as trash bags and gloves, and to serve as a drop-off location for collected materials along the railroad.
Alternatively, volunteers are encouraged to use the pick-up and drop-off locations to clean-up a local park, trail, or street of their choice, if they so desire.
