Upper Milford Snow Removal - Policy

Shoveling, plowing, throwing or otherwise depositing of snow upon a street is not permitted per the Second Class Township Code. Doing so creates a nuisance and potential danger to motorists and makes a difficult job even harder for Township road crew members. This includes plowing snow across a street to the opposite shoulder. By doing so you are scraping off de-icing material and creating a potential hazard at the edge of the road. That pile of snow left on the shoulder can turn into a solid block of ice due to freezing temperatures and compression, which can damage Township plow equipment and / or motorists vehicles.
