Due to recent traffic back-ups, the Whitestown Street Department has installed a new turn arrow on Westbound Whitestown Parkway, which turns onto Royal Run Blvd.

This upgrade will help make commutes smoother and quicker, allowing for a faster and safer turn. Thanks to the Street Department for working to improve our roads!

We appreciate the Boone County Invasives Cooperative and Master Gardeners of Boone County Indiana as they helped to remove invasive honeysuckle from the Big 4 Trail! These volunteers not only removed harmful plants, but they also picked up trash and planted native seeds.

The Big 4 Trail will soon be sprouting:

• Blue False Indigo - helps improve soil health
• Common Milkweed - an essential plant for Monarch butterflies
• Grey-headed Coneflower - provides food for birds & helps soil erosion
• Ironweed - a vital plant for our native bees & other pollinators
• Red & White Oak Trees - trees that are native to Indiana

When the snow starts to fall, we all play a role in keeping our streets clear and safe.

Here are a few simple tips to help make the season easier for everyone:



• Move Vehicles Off the Street- Keep parked cars off the road to allow plows to clear the streets more effectively and safely.
• Don’t Pile Snow in the Street- Avoid piling snow onto the street when clearing your driveway.
• Clear a Path to Your Mailbox- Ensure mail carriers can reach your mailbox by keeping pathways leading to your mailbox clear. A simple path can make a big difference, and sometimes, mail or deliveries can't be delivered if the path is blocked!
