Upper Moreland Township officials have said the snow emergency will remain in effect until 5 p.m. Monday, as cleanup efforts continue following the winter storm.
During the snow emergency, parking is prohibited on all designated snow emergency routes to allow Public Works crews to safely clear roadways. Township officials are urging residents with driveways to park off-street whenever possible. If on-street parking is necessary, residents are asked to park on the side of the street with even-numbered addresses.
Property owners are reminded that sidewalks must be cleared within 48 hours after snowfall or icy conditions have ended. Officials also emphasized that snow and ice should not be shoveled or dumped into public streets, as doing so creates safety hazards and slows cleanup operations.
Residents are encouraged to help emergency responders by clearing snow around fire hydrants to keep them visible and accessible. The following streets have been designated as emergency routes:
