Rosslyn Cleaning Ambassadors

On duty Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 3:30 PM

The friendly Rosslyn Cleaning Ambassadors work hard to keep the sidewalks and pedestrian corridors within the 17-block BID boundaries clean by picking up litter, pulling weeds, and removing graffiti and illegal signage from the public right-of-way.

Wearing purple uniforms, the ambassadors offer a friendly smile on the streets of Rosslyn, providing hospitality services that include giving easy-to-follow directions, listing things to see and do in Rosslyn, and providing restaurant recommendations.

During the winter, the team engages in snow and ice removal from key areas to supplement Arlington County efforts. In summer months, they power wash sidewalks throughout the BID.
