Streets / Sidewalks
Most of the streets within the limits of the City of Peoria are the responsibility of the City of Peoria. However, there are some streets that are not the responsibility of the City of Peoria for maintenance and snow removal. The State of Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) has the responsibility for War Memorial Drive, I-74, Route 6, and Knoxville north of War Memorial Drive. Peoria County also has a few roadways within the City that they are responsible for, including Charter Oak Road west of Big Hollow Road, Big Hollow Road, Willow Knolls Road, Wilhelm Road, and a few others.

In an effort to keep the City streets clean, the city of Peoria provides a street-sweeping program consisting of two city-wide assignments, one in the spring and one in the fall. All residential streets are swept at that time. During the summer months, primary streets are cleaned periodically. Also, some areas have signs posted that restrict parking at certain times.
A City ordinance and Illinois State Law prohibits raking leaves and blowing grass clippings into the street. Citizens are encouraged to use the yard waste removal provided weekly by GFL. Yard waste removal dates can be found here. For information on the proper disposal of yard waste, including leaves, see Trash Services. If you see anyone violating this ordinance please call: Code Enforcement at 309-494-8654.
