A statewide travel ban, which went into effect Sunday night, was lifted at noon Monday. But State Police and the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management are encouraging the public to keep avoiding unnecessary travel.

"Hazardous conditions persist in some parts of the state," the agencies said in a joint announcement. "Some roadways remain snow-covered, visibility is limited in some areas, and crews continue working to clear roads and restore safe travel."
