Street Rangers

Making the city’s streets shine

Out and about  in the city centre from the early hours, the team carry out deep cleans seven days a week, making pavements, walkways and key pedestrianised areas shine while providing an everyday service for city centre businesses to ensure hot spots are kept clean from spillages to graffiti. The Street Rangers can respond to requests made by levy payers.

Did you know? The rangers’ first major clean-up in the city centre was Briggate, where they spent six weeks jet washing Leeds’ most prominent street, which is the length of three football pitches, and removing an estimated hundreds of thousands of pieces of chewing gum. Other landmark areas to have been given a Rangers’ clean up include Albion Street, Dortmund Square, Buttons Yards, the Corn Exchange and West Yorkshire Playhouse. The team are equipped with four electric environmentally friendly vehicles which work with five high pressured jetting units and have deep cleaned the equivalent of the full length of the city loop eight times over in 2017.
