 We do our very best to pick up the trash
along the roads in Blythewood. Some of the local roadways we travel are actually not in the Town of Blythewood, but maintained by Richland County. Therefore there are some areas that are not routinely  maintained.
All we can do is encourage the community to not litter ANYWHERE
and then we will have a trash free community to be proud of. Thanks for helping out!

As is our job at Town Hall,  
we have reported the many potholes on our roads in Blythewood. I'm sure our complaints are recorded, but it must be a very slow process to have them repaired.








Also... We do our very best to pick up the trash
along the roads in Blythewood. Some of the local roadways we travel are actually not in the Town of Blythewood, but maintained by Richland County
( or not maintained...). 
All we can do is encourage the community to not litter ANYWHERE
and then we will have a trash free community to be proud of. Thanks for helping out!
