The Great American Cleanup® unifies and beautifies communities across the country in a grassroots spring-cleaning movement. Celebrating its 23rd year, the most recent Great American Cleanup created 15,000 opportunities for millions of volunteers to have remarkable results – picking up millions of pounds of litter, cleaning over 100,000 acres of public spaces, and tens of thousands of miles of roadways and shorelines.
The Great American Cleanup prompts individuals to take greater responsibility for their local environment by conducting grassroots community service projects that engage volunteers, local businesses, and civic leaders. A successful Great American Cleanup project must fulfill the needs of the local community; that’s why we work with local community and business leaders, as well as other key stakeholders to gain knowledge about the community’s needs and carefully select and execute appropriate projects.

Beginning Monday, March 4, 2024, through Friday, March 8, 2024, contractors will begin a project of relining sewer pipes along Depot Street and 3rd Avenue In Jonesborough. This work will transition along Depot Street from S. Cherokee to 3rd Avenue throughout the week. We do not anticipate a complete road closure, but at times one lane may be closed to allow the crew to conduct service.
The week of Monday, March 11, 2024, through Friday, March 15, 2024, contractors will be working the area adjacent to Boone Street between Sabin Drive and Andrew Jackson Highway.

This includes the following locations: Sabin Drive at Whites Auto Parts, Library Parking Lot, Visitors Center Parking Lot, Post Office Parking Lot, Town Hall Parking Lot, and the entrance to the shopping area near Renascent Bank and Arby’s on the Southbound lane of Andrew Jackson Highway.
Drivers are to be aware of construction vehicles and personnel in the work areas. At times, the equipment utilized will make a bursting noise followed by an air and steam release.
