Good morning, Gilbert.

Gilbert celebrates National Waste and Recycling Workers Week as the solid waste team serves 85,000 homes each week.

The team includes operators, inspectors, customer service representatives, maintenance, outreach and administrative staff — they begin as early as 4:30 a.m. collecting trash and recycling and checking bins to keep services running smoothly.

A fiery motorcycle crash closed the westbound lanes of Loop 202 near Lindsay Road at 4:30 a.m. on Thursday — heavy traffic backed up to Val Vista Drive as troopers work to piece together the cause.

Play It Again Sports will open a franchise store at 3143 E.

Williams Field Road, suite 101, Gilbert—where the store will buy and sell sporting goods. The owners expect to start purchasing inventory in late June or early July and plan a grand opening by the end of summer.
