The Highway Department is the most visible service agency in town government. From snowplowing in the winter, to street paving, brush removal, leaf collection, park maintenance and drainage projects during the remainder of the year, this department is deeply involved in lives of Alden residents.
Brush Pickup and Mulch Delivery
Highway Department employees make weekly visits to neighborhoods to pick up tree limbs and brush. For collection, tree limbs should be at least 4 feet in length and no more than 12 inches in diameter. The south side of the Town is visited during the 1st and 3rd weeks of the month, with the northern side of our community being covered on the 2nd and 4th weeks of the month. As friends of the environment, the Department recycles the mulched trees throughout Alden and will deliver to Town residents free of charge.
Fall Leaf Pickup
This service is completed weekly during the fall. All leaves should be bagged {it doesn’t matter if the bags are clear or colored} and left street side.
Driveway and Culvert Pipe Installation
After application and payment of a $90 installation fee, the Highway Department will install driveway and or culvert drainage pipe at street side of any property located on a town road. The property owners are responsible to purchasing culvert pipe on their own. For installation on non-town roads either the Erie County {759-8328} or NY State Highway {683-3476} Departments should be contacted.
