Please remember to remove your vehicle(s) from the roadway to allow DPW a clear path to plow.
We will do our best to keep everyone updated with conditions of roadways and if any road closures are necessary.
Hello Friends and Neighbors. Double Duty today!! It's Daylight Savings starting at 2 AM overnight tonight (Ahead 1 hour). CHANGE YOUR CLOCKS AND CHANGE YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR & CO DETECTOR BATTERIES. Also there are many FIRE HYDRANTS still buried in snow. Be a good parent and Adopt-a-Hydrant and clear the snow. THANK YOU!
So you want me to clear my next door neighbors hydrant? They never do. I would, but I’m sick today & my back always hurts when bending down 🙁
THANK you to all the first responders . Thank you for everything you do to protect us and our families.
PLEASE MAKE SURE THE FIRE HYDRANT NEAR YOUR HOUSE LOOKS LIKE THIS!Get out there and clear those fire hydrants! It only takes 10 minutes to help protect you and your neighbors. The Fire Deparment is counting on your help to save valuable time.
I shovel the hydrant closest to my home. I do 3 - 4' from the center of the hydrant all the way around and a 4' opening facing the street.

Dig out the fire hydrants if they are located on your property!
Great point Re. It could be the difference in us saving your house or a life. The 10-15 mins it takes you to dig it out is 10-15 mins faster that we can establish a water supply and get water on a fire.
We have had a few calls over the past couple of days for people going door to door representing themselves as PECO employees and asking about account information...
Just got off the phone with PECO and they DO NOT have anyone that goes door to door...In addition, we do not have any electric or utility type company with permits to go door to door...
PLEASE do not engage anyone in a conversation and give any information to them...
Always call the Police with any suspicious people or activity...

Thanks for sharing this info.
These idiots were in Bensalem last year. One of them came to my door and was very demanding to see my PECO bill. I advised him that trespassing on private property and making demands of the property owner could be very hazardous to his health. He made the smart move and left. About 10 minutes later, Bensalem PD was fitting him with a lovely pair of silver bracelets. Guess he should have harassed my retired police officer neighbor.
***UPDATE***
Newtown Richboro Rd is reopened ...3pm...
*********************
Newtown Richboro Rd between Holland Rd and Rock way will be closed for an extended period of time due to a PECO pole down...
In Memory of...
Frank Darling...
25 years ago today, Northampton Twp. and the Council Rock Class of 1982 lost a hometown Hero...
Frank was a volunteer with the Northampton Twp Fire Company, he had also been a communication tech with the Bucks County 911 system. Married for just a few months, Frank was killed by a foreign terrorist while at the entrance to the CIA HQ in Virginia. Frank died that day while protecting his wife Judy.
Frank's name is on a star on the wall of the CIA HQ and will always be remembered by those he worked with.
Frank was one of those guys that if you knew him, you loved him and Frank was loved by many...
Water in the roadway...
You should always use caution during and after heavy rain. Be prepared for standing water in the roadway...
If you come upon a roadway with flowing water across the street, you should turn around and DON'T drive through it ...
Slower speeds, extra time and patience...are your friend...
