Parsippany-Troy Hills Hurricane Sandy Information And Alerts from Mayor James Barbiero

According to Mayor James Barbiero, the State of Emergency within the Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills is still in effect, but the ban on motor vehicle traffic on township roadways has been lifted. However township officials are still urging people to stay off of the roads as much as possible.

There are still many streets in the township that are blocked with downed trees and wires. DO NOT approach any downed wires. Assume that any wire that you see is live. As restoration of power continues in the area, lines that were previously dead could be energized without warning.

DO NOT move or drive around cones or barricades. They are there for a reason and you will encounter a hazardous situation if you disregard them.  If it is necessary for you to leave your home, USE EXTREME CAUTION WHILE DRIVING AND ONLY DRIVE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS.  Some traffic signals and street lights are still without power.
