Leaf collection - Double duty

Both leaf collectors were running today. Collection times will ordinarily be the same as the posted times for street cleaning.

Remember: Do not burn leaves.  Doing so is against borough ordinance.

A resident was burning a pile of leaves in her backyard this afternoon until Columbia Spy intervened and she "outened" the fire with a garden hose.

Back where they belong

Last night, the signs on Route 441, near the overpass at Route 30, looked like this (above).


But this afternoon, workers turned them back to their original positions and secured them there (below).

What's up with 441?

 Judging from the fact that the traffic lights at Front and Walnut are still covered, it does not look as if the Route 441 bypass will be open tomorrow as expected.  PennDOT and Norfolk Southern are reportedly having issues with synchronizing the lights.

Speaking of 441, what's up with the signs near the overpass at Route 30?
