The Eruv of Monsey released its weekly inspection report ahead of Shabbos Parshas Va’eschanan. Inspectors identified 18 issues during this week’s inspections, including five that required immediate repair, nine classified as high priority, and the remainder as lower-priority maintenance items. Officials confirmed that all sections of the Eruv are kosher following this week’s repairs.
In the Suffern Eruv, crews repaired a damaged PVC pole along East Mahwah Road after its base was found to be broken.
The Airmont Eruv required one repair on Hampshire Hill Road, where overgrown bamboo in the Upper Saddle River area became tangled with the Eruv string. Crews cleared the vegetation and restored the line.
In Chestnut Ridge, crews repaired a downed Eruv string in the Rabbi Langer’s Scotland Hill Rambam section.
Within the Monsey Rambam Eruv, one repair was completed near Suzanne Lake after branches became tangled in the Eruv string. In the Monsey Rambam 2 section, crews completed two additional repairs by clearing branches from an Eruv wire along Viola Road and repairing a damaged fence at the Shoppers Haven construction site.
In Wesley Hills, two repairs were completed along Route 202. Crews removed branches pressing against the Eruv wire and corrected an area where the Eruv wire had become tangled with two other utility wires.
The Good Samaritan Hospital Rambam, Pearl River, Montebello, Spring Valley, Spring Valley Rambam, Nanuet Rambam, New Hempstead, New City, Hillcrest, and Haverstraw sections were all inspected and found to be fully operational.
As part of ongoing infrastructure improvements, Eruv officials announced the completion of a major upgrade in the New City section over the past two weeks. Along South Mountain Road, crews replaced the existing PVC with new 1-inch PVC, providing a stronger, straighter, and more durable installation that will also make future inspections easier for Eruv checkers.
Officials confirmed that all required repairs were completed ahead of Shabbos, ensuring the Monsey Eruv remains fully kosher and operational for the community.
