The American Public Works Association celebrates National Public Works Week each year. The week recognizes the role public works professionals play in keeping communities safe and functioning smoothly. The objective is to increase public awareness of worker contributions and enlighten the public about public works professionals' duties, practices, and goals. The 2021 Public Works Week theme is "Stronger Together," which challenges people to think about the role public works plays in creating a great place to live.
The Newton Public Works Department employees maintain and improve the systems and services vital to our community's health, safety, and comfort. Thank a Newton Public Works professional for all of their hard work today!
