Veolia have brought out the big guns to sweep the leaves off our streets (or some of them). I saw 8 large men with 8 large brooms sweeping away in Outram and Clyde Roads, as well as 2 smaller men blowing out the leaves from under the parked cars. A huge lorry with circular brushes tidied up after them.
Whatever happened to our lovely street sweeper Peter, who kept our pavements so clean?

Does anyone know if street sweepers are supposed to/do clear leaves from storm drain covers?.
I'm not sure. They should do. But if a storm drain is blocked, this can be reported on the Haringey website. It can take a little while to find this.
I think it is just the covers that need cleaning of leaves to stop the torrents flowing down the street gutter. Only takes a little effort, much less than the techy gully cleanse I think.
