Volunteers continue to take matters into their own hands, cleaning up the area surrounding Reserve Street Bridge as homeless camps and trash grow.

Homeless camps have been set up for years near the bridge.

Annually, volunteers pick up litter in the area around Earth Day, but this year there was so much trash, volunteers are returning to the area to clean up for the third week in a row.

The third Reserve St. Bridge clean up will take place Friday, May 6 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and will focus on the west side of the bridge. For more information, click here.
