Spokane Delays Waste Collection for July 4th Holiday

Spokane's garbage, recycling, and food waste collection services will be delayed by one day in observance of the July 4th holiday, with pickups occurring on Saturday, July 5th. Residents must ensure their carts are out by 6 AM to avoid missed collections. In conjunction with this announcement, the city will initiate two improvement projects next week focused on enhancing pedestrian and bike routes in north Spokane. These projects aim to promote sustainable transportation options and improve safety for cyclists and pedestrians. The city has been investing in infrastructure upgrades to support a more walkable and bike-friendly environment.

Community feedback and involvement are encouraged as these initiatives unfold. The improvements align with Spokane's broader transportation goals and reflect a commitment to enhancing urban mobility. Overall, these efforts are significant for fostering a more inclusive and accessible city for all residents.
