Alert
• Even if you do not reside on a Snow Emergency Street, please consider keeping your vehicle in your driveway, if possible. Doing so will allow for more efficient plowing.
• South River Borough Offices, Municipal Court, and Police Records will be closed tomorrow, February 24th.
• As per the South River Board of Education, all South River Public Schools will be closed tomorrow, February 24th.
• As per South River Borough ordinance, all sidewalks must be cleared of snow within 24 hours after the snowfall stops.
• When removing snow from driveways and sidewalks, do not throw the snow into the street. Instead, place it onto other areas such as your lawn or yard.
• South River Department of Public Works crews have been working for nearly 24 hours straight and continue working to clear our streets. Please be patient as they work to reach all streets in the borough.
• Keep in mind plow crews will make multiple passes on your street which may affect shoveling you have already completed. If they pass after you shovel, it may become necessary to shovel again.
• You can help our plow crews work faster and more efficiently by not driving during the storm, removing cars from the road, removing any objects from the road (trash cans, basketball hoops, etc.), and not shoveling or blowing snow back into the street.
• Residents are reminded that snow plows will make multiple passes on your street and may affect shoveling you have already completed. If they pass after you shovel, it may become necessary to shovel again.
• Essential services will remain uninterrupted. First responders will have extra manpower on hand should you need them. Remember to dial 9-1-1 only in the event of an emergency. Non emergency calls should be directed to 732-238-1000.
