STATE OF EMERGENCY IN MUNHALL

The Borough of Munhall and Allegheny County are presently under a state of emergency. Only essential Borough services will be provided.

No Solid Waste or Recycling will be collected this week. As a reminder, Monday, February 15th is a holiday and there will be no waste collection on that day either. Garbage will be delayed one day during the week of February 15th.

Power companies are working to reconnect service throughout Allegheny County. There are currently 24,000 customers without electrical service.

Driving conditions continue to be challenging in some areas. Power lines and trees are continuing to fall due to the heavy snow.

In an effort to reduce volume on roadways and allow public works crews and power companies to conduct their operations, the Borough of Munhall asks you to continue to limit driving and stay off of streets and roadways to allow public works crews, power companies and emergency responders to conduct their work.

The Public Works Department is working as best they can to continue to clear roadways. One plow is down, and one Public Works truck is down as well. Therefore, we are working with limited equipment and will continue to do the best we can to clear roadways.

PLEASE DO NOT PILE SNOW BACK IN STREET

The Head of the Public Works Department has asked that you not pile snow back into the street after the plows have made an effort to clear the streets. If you need to remove snow from your driveway, please place the snow into your yard or an adjacent area. Continuing to place the snow back into the street after it has been cleared by the plow creates travel difficulties and a safety hazard, as well as the potential to turn into ice.
