Borough News and  E-Mail Blasts

Email Blast Update Warwck Road (Sent July 9, 2010)
Update to the repair of the Warwick Road sewer line.

On Friday, July 9 the repair continues as does the alternating lane of traffic.  There will be no work over the weekend.  On Monday, July 12 the alternating lane will continue beginning at 7:30 am.  At this time no night work is required, which results in the road remaining open and not having to be shut down.

The day work will continue until the sewer line is replaced, and the area is repaved.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact the Borough Hall, 783-0600.
