The Eruv of Monsey released its weekly inspection report ahead of Shabbos Parshas Ha’azinu, with inspectors identifying seven issues across the Eruv system. Six were determined to be not kosher and required immediate repair, while one was classified as high-priority.
Following the completion of this week’s repairs, officials confirmed that all sections of the Eruv are kosher and operational for Shabbos.
In Suffern, crews completed two separate repairs after branches were found pushing against the Eruv string.
In the Monsey Rambam Eruv 1 section, one repair was completed near the New York State Thruway three-way, while two additional repairs were carried out near a construction site on Eckerson Road in Spring Valley.
In the Monsey Rambam Eruv 2 section, crews completed a repair behind Wells Fargo Bank after construction crews installed a new fence. The Eruv pole was repositioned to ensure the line remained properly configured.
In New City, crews addressed an issue along South Mountain Road where an Eruv wire had shifted away from its proper position above a utility pole. Three new lechis were installed to properly connect the Eruv to the utility poles on both sides.
In the Haverstraw Eruv, crews repaired an Eruv wire that had become tangled with other wires.
The Good Samaritan Hospital Rambam, Airmont, Chestnut Ridge, Pearl River, Montebello, Spring Valley, Spring Valley Rambam, Nanuet Rambam, Wesley Hills, New Hempstead, and Hillcrest sections were also inspected and confirmed kosher.
Eruv inspectors also began a detailed inspection of fencing used throughout the Eruv system. Several minor repairs were completed as part of the inspection, with the remaining fencing inspections and maintenance scheduled to continue following Yom Tov.
Officials confirmed that all necessary repairs have been completed and the entire Monsey Eruv system is fully kosher and operational for Shabbos.
