🚨 Snow Emergency Parking Notice – Clayton Residents 🚨

With winter weather expected, the Clayton Police Department reminds all residents that vehicles must be removed from roadways to allow for safe and effective snow plowing and emergency response.

🛑 Please also remove basketball nets, trailers, and any other obstructions from the roadway.

🅿️ Temporary alternative parking locations during the snowstorm include:
• DJ Benz Park
• Clayton Senior Center
• Clayton Recreation Center
• Clayton Little League
• Autumn Pasquale Park
• Sandelier Park

Keeping roadways clear helps protect vehicles, Borough equipment, and ensures emergency access for first responders.

⚠️ This notice serves as a final warning. Parking enforcement will issue summonses for vehicles or obstructions left in the roadway during snow removal operations.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our community safe. ❄️🚓

There is a water main break on Delsea Drive. School Bus transportation may be delayed.

🏀 Big night at the Xfinity Center!
