Residents of Arlington, get ready to adjust your plans for Thanksgiving week as city offices and facilities observe the holiday with a temporary break. The closures, which were announced through the City of Arlington’s official notification, will affect both Thanksgiving day, November 28, and Friday.
You’ll need to change your schedules if you’re used to Thursday garbage and recycling pickups. Friday will now be the new collection day for Thursday’s trash, and Saturday for Friday’s waste, since the city has chosen to push for a one-day delay in this service. On Monday, December 2, routine services are scheduled to swiftly resume.
The closures cover a wide range of topics. Among other places, Arlington City Hall, the Municipal Court, and all public library branches will be shuttered on Thanksgiving Day. Additionally, essential services like transportation and the Handitran office will not be available. The break is brief, though, since all golf courses and Arlington On-Demand transportation will resume operations on Friday, albeit at weekend rates.
Recreational locations have also adjusted their hours to coincide with the holidays. On Friday, Nov. 29, athletic facilities and recreation centers will be open for business during limited hours. According to publicly shared schedule details, locations such as the Elzie Odom Athletic Center will be open from 8 a.m. to noon, while The Beacon Recreation Center will be open from 12 to 4 p.m. However, most facilities quickly return to normal operations after Thanksgiving.
