State Roads SR1030 Birchrun Road / Hollow / Flowing Springs Road (St. Matthew to store, Route 100 to St. Matthews Road) SR401 Conestoga Road SR1033 Hollow Road (From Flowing Springs Road to Covered Bridge) SR100 Pottstown Pike SR1028 Pughtown Road SR1031 St. Matthews Road RIGHT OF WAY MAINTENANCE The Public Works crew has the right to enter, use, and maintain the right of way to help improve motorists sight. Right of way is generally the edge of property along a Township road; measured from the center of the road, its width varies from 33 ft - 50 ft wide. Trees, boulders, stones or fences are hazards and should not be placed in the right of way. SNOW REMOVAL Please clear an area on the "upstream" side of your driveway entrance to allow space for the snow plow to deposit snow without creating a windrow of snow at the driveway entrance. Depositing or leaving snow in public roads restricts travel lanes and causes snow and ice accumulation. These actions are prohibited and homeowners are subject to fines. Vehicles must be removed from all on-street parking spaces (including cul-de-sacs). Snow removal around mailboxes is the homeowner's responsibility. Please refer to Ordinance 109-2001 Declaration of Snow and Ice Emergency for complete policy description. TRASH ON SIDE OF ROAD NOT IMPEDING TRAFFIC The Township does not go onto private property to remove items on the side of the road. We will remove trash items from Township-owned property only. TRASH PICKUP AND RECYCLING Township residents are required to find their own private trash hauler. If you live in a development with an HOA, check with the HOA to confirm their chosen trash services. Please refer to the Township Code, and search for Municipal Waste Collectors and Recycling Ordinance for complete policy description. Chester County Solid Waste Authority has complete information on proper recycling procedures. WATER/SEWER Bucks County Water & Sewer Authority provides water and sewer services to most of the Township. Some developments have public water and/or sewer and are serviced by other providers/townships .
