Nearly 2K Cherry Hill Residents Still Without Power Thursday

CHERRY HILL, NJ — There are still more than 2,000 PSE&G customers in Cherry Hill without power Thursday morning, according to the electric company's outage map.

The estimated restoration time is 3:30 p.m. Monday. There were a little more than 3,000 Camden County residents without power altogether.

They are among the more than 937,000 residents statewide who were still without power statewide the morning after Tropical Storm Isaias tore through the state, bringing down thousands of trees and power lines. Read more here: 937K In NJ Still Without Power As Isaias Cleanup Continues

The traffic light at Kresson and Heartwood is out Wednesday afternoon, according to Cherry Hill police. Drivers should use alternate routes until further notice.

A traffic light at Haddonfield and Church Road that had been out is now fully operational, police said.

Lion's Den Park is closed due to downed trees and damage from the storm, according to township officials. Officials said residents should not attempt to enter any part of the facility including the pickleball courts and picnic area until it’s deemed safe.

The Camden County Department of Public Works has been actively working to remove road hazards blocking county roadways since the storms hit and are continuing to work as quickly as possible to restore access to all major thoroughfares.

After hours of work, Kresson Road in Voorhees reopened fully this morning. Closures remain in place along Central Avenue in Winslow and Warwick Road in Haddonfield, according to county officials.

“We want to thank our residents for their patience and understanding as we continue to get these areas cleared and safe for motorists,” Camden County Freeholder Barbara Holcomb, liaison to the Department of Public Works, said. “Downed trees and broken limbs are often intertwined with active power lines which have to be de-energized by utility providers before crews can safely remove the debris from the roadway. Our crews will continue working throughout the day to reopen all county roadways which have been affected as soon as possible.”
