SNOW REMOVAL & STREET SWEEPING

Snow removal presents a challenge to Manchester Township. During the active snowstorm the public works department will attempt to keep open the major routes (arterial and collector) streets of Manchester Township to facilitate the movement of emergency vehicles. As a storm subsides the snowplows will methodically plow each and every public street in Manchester Township. Residents can assist the public works department by moving, where possible, vehicles off of the streets during and after the storm event. The public works department and the fire department also seek the residents assistance in clearing snow away from fire hydrants and storm sewer basins.  Developments are normally plowed after the snow has stopped.

The public works department also performs street sweeping on an as needed basis. The public works department attempts to post the streets to be swept the day before the actual sweeping so that residents can move their vehicles to allow curb to curb sweeping.
