Check out the full list of closures here.

What about Town Hall?

Town Hall will be closed Tuesday. So will the Administrative Offices and Records Division of the Police Department.

Has the city declared a snow emergency or parking ban?
Yes

Winter Parking Ban will start at 1 a.m. Tuesday, March 13, prohibiting on-street parking throughout the Town. This ban will remain in effect until all winter operations related to the coming storm are completed. The Danvers DPW will notify you when the ban has ended.

Generally, the Public Services Director will call a "snow emergency" when excessive amounts of snow are predicted. All vehicles are required to be removed from all roadways to allow for a better clearing job. All vehicles left on the road are subject to tow.

What about trash and recycling?

There will be no trash or recycling pick up Tuesday, instead Trash pick up and recycling will be delayed a day, the town announced.

What about the MBTA?

The MBTA Commuter Rail will operate on an “Extremely Reduced Schedule” on all lines. Red, Orange, Blue, and Green Lines will operate with reduced frequency, similar to a Saturday.
