STATEN ISLAND, NY — Snow cleanup efforts continue throughout the borough this weekend, with the city Department of Sanitation conducting plowing and snow removal operations.
As of Saturday afternoon, DSNY workers were seen at the intersection of Watchogue Road and Woolley Avenue in Westerleigh, utilizing dump trucks and bulldozers to remove the snow and ice that accumulated throughout the prior weekend’s snowstorm. This has caused temporary road closures and disruptions to traffic flow.
