Monsey Eruv Weekly Inspection Report — Erev Shavuos V’Shabbos; Rabbanim to Discuss New West Maple Farm Karpaf

May 20, 2026·2 min read

The Eruv of Monsey released its weekly inspection report ahead of Shavuos and Shabbos, detailing repairs and maintenance work completed across multiple sections of the Eruv. Officials confirmed that all sections were inspected and are currently kosher following this week’s repairs.

In the Good Samaritan Hospital Rambam Eruv (Sh’lav 5), crews trimmed branches pushing against the wire at two locations along Hemion Road.

Several repairs were completed in the Airmont Eruv. Along Hampshire Hill Road, crews adjusted a PVC beneath the wire to restore proper alignment. Branches pushing against the wire on Brook Road were cleared, and additional PVC adjustments were completed on Saddle River Road.

In the Chestnut Ridge Eruv, maintenance crews addressed multiple issues, including clearing branches along Williams Road, replacing a cracked PVC near Sutin Place on Chestnut Ridge Road, and making adjustments at two separate locations on Cottage Lane where PVC alignment issues were identified.

The Montebello Eruv required repairs along Route 202, where the Eruv string had become tangled in branches. In the Monsey Rambam (Sh’lav 2), crews cut branches touching the Eruv string along Route 306.

Additional repairs were completed in the Spring Valley Rambam Eruv (Sh’lav 3). Along Route 45 and Old Nyack Turnpike, a PVC that had been struck was readjusted and secured to the utility pole. Nearby, crews also removed branches touching the Eruv string near the overpass.

In Wesley Hills, along Route 202, crews carried out extensive branch clearing after vegetation began pushing against the Eruv string. Officials noted that workers performed what they described as a “triple-zero cutting job” to minimize the likelihood of recurring issues. A PVC along Route 202 was also adjusted beneath the wire after concerns were raised regarding its alignment.

All remaining sections — including Suffern, Pearl River, Monsey Rambam (Sh’lav 1), Spring Valley, Nanuet, New Hempstead, New City, Hillcrest, and Haverstraw — were reported to be in good standing following inspections.

Eruv officials also announced that a newly identified karpaf concern at West Maple Farm will be reviewed at the upcoming Rabbanim conference. In addition, crews continued ongoing inspections of Palisades Parkway fencing in the New City area this week, where multiple large trees were removed and fencing repairs were completed to strengthen the Eruv perimeter ahead of Yom Tov and Shabbos.
