(Lindenwold, NJ) – As a winter storm approaches our region this evening, the Camden County Department of Public Works is working diligently to ensure the county’s 1,200 lane miles of road are safe and passable for motorists.

“Our crews have been called in to ensure that our roads are prepared for this winter weather event,” said Commissioner Al Dyer, liaison to the Department of Public Works. “As our crews head out to treat the roads, remember to always leave at least six car lengths behind our vehicles while they work and move any cars off the street and into a driveway.”

A brief snow shower is expected in the early afternoon, with conditions transitioning to sleet and freezing rain after sunset and continuing through the night. The winter weather is expected to taper off around midday on Saturday. However, long-term freezing temperatures throughout the weekend will ensure snow and ice remain on untreated surfaces for several days.
