A wintertime workday for the Village of Elmwood Park Department of Public Works. Elmwood Park Illinois USA. January 2009.

The sky is bright and sunny, but the outside temperature is bitterly cold in the single digit range on this bright winter day in January of 2009.

Still, the very dedicated and hardworking crews from the Village of Elmwood Park Department of Public Works are giving it all they've got, and keeping the streets well maintained and presentable. While the snow and ice buildup on North 74th Court and other village streets prohibited street sweeper operation, the plowing crews took over and kept traffic moving with plentiful amounts of road salt. Also lending a helping hand through it all, was this city crew with a modified dump truck and a portable chipper machine in tow, to take care of any downed tree limbs or branches.
Plenty of fresh mulch wood chips were produced on this day to help maintain the city parks in the village of Elmwood Park, and other civic projects.

Thank You Village of Elmwood Park Illinois for a job well done in some of the nastiest, bitterly cold winter conditions in 2009.
