Lewisburg Borough Street Snow Removal Plans for the Week of February 8, 2021

Lewisburg Borough Public Works staff plan to undertake snow removal from the streets identified as “No Parking” on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of the Week of February 8, 2021.  All vehicles must be removed from these streets by 7:00 am on their posted “No Parking” days or they will be ticketed and towed by the Buffalo Valley Regional Police Department.  As several passes with the equipment may be required on each street and as the crew will likely place road salt on the street to help melt the remaining snow, please do not park on these streets until after noon on the designated “No Parking” days.  Parking on these streets before noon, even if they appear to have been cleared, could result in a ticket and your vehicle being towed.  Please note that the inclement weather forecast for this weekend could change these plans on short notice.
