Branford's Public Works Crews On The Roads 'Pushing Snow Back' In Some Cases, Hauling it Away

BRANFORD, CT—A week after a winter storm dumped more than a foot of snow in Branford, the town's Department of Public Works crews are out Monday "continuing to push back and haul snow away."

The areas of town that were slated to see snow either pushed back or hauled away include streets in the town center, Stony Creek, and various other neighborhoods, DPW posted to Facebook.

The department encouraged motorists to "use caution around plows and equipment and avoid pushing snow back onto the road."

The Public Works Department is also asking residents to report sightline and safety concerns. One may reach the department by calling (203) 488-4156 or via email at publicworks@branford-ct.gov.

Additionally, as crews deal with the snow, it's noted that "salt use will be limited due to cold temperatures and state shortages."

Gov. Ned Lamont confirmed the statewide salt shortage Saturday.
