Residents and business owners will now be required to remove snow from sidewalks in front of their property within 48 hours of the end of a snowfall, according to Cranbury committee member Jay Taylor.

The Cranbury Township Committee adopted the ordinance with a 3-0 vote, which also allows Cranbury police officers to ask those who have not cleared sidewalks to do so.

People who do not comply will not face a fine, according to the committee.

"We've had a need for an ordinance like this for awhile," said committee member Glenn Johnson, citing a story he was told by a resident whose son was almost hit by a vehicle, because he was forced to walk in the street due to snow not removed from a sidewalk.
