(New Brighton, PA) New Brighton Borough is still cleaning up operations following the major winter storm that recently impacted that region as Public Works crews remained mobilized and focused on plowing alleys throughout the municipality and removing accumulated snow from the Downtown parking areas. Once the alleys and the Downtown district are cleared, maintenance work will transition to the snow piles being removed from intersection corners to widen turning radiuses, which ensures safer navigation for turning vehicles and emergency apparatus and will then proceed to removing snow from on-street parking areas within residential neighborhoods. New Brighton Borough maintains a public road system that spans just over 25 miles and this process will take a considerable amount of time and require the community’s continued patience due to the volume of snow and the extent of the road network. New Brighton residents are reminded that municipal crews will not clear access to driveways, private driveways, or sidewalks. Property owners have a responsiblity for clearing their own driveways, driveway access and walkways and residents are asked not to shovel snow from private property back into the street, because this creates hazards for other motorists.
