The Eruv of Monsey released its weekly inspection report ahead of Shabbos Parshas Noach, with inspectors identifying 15 issues across the Eruv system. Ten were determined to be not kosher and required immediate attention, two were classified as high-priority, and three were considered medium-priority.

Following this week’s inspections and repairs, officials confirmed that all sections of the Eruv are kosher and operational for Shabbos.

In Airmont, crews completed a repair along Smith Hill Road after inspectors discovered a significant gap beneath a PVC lechi, possibly caused by movement of the utility pole. The issue was corrected.

In Chestnut Ridge, five repairs were completed along Chestnut Ridge Road between addresses 740 and 760, where five Eruv strings had fallen and required restoration.

In Pearl River, crews addressed an issue along Loescher Lane near the entrance to a horse farm, where a large fallen tree branch was pressing against the Eruv string.

In the Monsey Rambam Eruv 1 section, three repairs were reported, including the restoration of a downed Eruv string behind Bais Midrash Elyon. Inspectors also identified damage to the cemetery fence at Maple Avenue and Saddle River Road following a motor vehicle accident.

In the Monsey Rambam Eruv 2 section, crews addressed an issue along Viola Road, where another wire had become tangled with the Eruv string, causing it to bend out of position.

In New City, crews removed branches growing dangerously close to the Eruv string along West Clarkstown Road, just before the Palisades Interstate Parkway.

In Hillcrest, inspectors identified vines growing along a lechi on West Clarkstown Road, approaching its upper section. The issue was included in this week’s maintenance report.

The Suffern, Good Samaritan Hospital Rambam, Montebello, Spring Valley, Spring Valley Rambam, Nanuet Rambam, Wesley Hills, New Hempstead, and Haverstraw sections were also inspected and confirmed kosher.

Additional Highway Fencing Maintenance

Beyond the regular weekly repairs, Eruv crews continued their detailed inspection and maintenance of fencing throughout the system, concentrating on a lengthy stretch of highway fencing.

Crews trimmed trees and branches pressing against the fencing and repositioned affected sections to ensure they remained straight, secure, and structurally sound.

The ongoing maintenance is part of efforts to strengthen the Eruv infrastructure and prevent future problems caused by overgrown vegetation and shifting fencing.

With all sections listed as kosher in the latest inspection report, the Eruv of Monsey confirmed that the entire system is ready for Shabbos Parshas Noach.
