The City of Leeds Public Works Department recently undertook a comprehensive cleanup effort under the bridges at I-20 Exit 140 on Highway 78, both eastbound and westbound, throughout the month of June. This significant project involved the removal of overgrown bushes, trees, grass, and debris from the sides of the road under both bridges and in front of the mall. Despite this area not being the direct responsibility of the City of Leeds, the Public Works team recognized its importance in shaping the first impression of visitors entering the city. The cleanup effort included removing small trees and grass that had taken root in the cracks of the concrete and along the roadway shoulders where water flow had deposited seeds. Additionally, trash was collected and the limb truck was utilized to dispose of the debris. Public Works Supervisor Johnny Warren commented, “This is a busy spot with a lot of traffic coming in and out of our city and we want to keep this area looking good for our visitors!” The City of Leeds expresses its gratitude to the Public Works Department for their diligent work and ongoing contributions to the city's overall well-being. Their efforts not only enhance the city's appearance, but also reflect the community's commitment to maintaining a welcoming environment for all who visit.
