Township Of Whitemarsh: Snow Removal Tips

Press release from the Township of Whitemarsh:

December 16, 2020

If the forecast is correct, shovels will be busy in the next 48 hours. Here are some tips on clearing snow. 

• Wait until the snow plows have made a first pass before clearing your driveway.
• Be sure snow piles are located to the right of your driveway. This way, less snow will be re-directed into the driveway with each passing truck.
• Be patient. State, county and township crews will work around the clock, if needed, if ensure all roadways are cleared as quickly as possible.
• Please clear fire hydrants near your home of snow. A zone of three feet around the hydrant is sufficient with a path to the street.
