Orleans County travel advisory continues on Tuesday

ORLEANS COUNTY, N.Y. – The advisory restricting non-essential travel continues in Orleans County on Tuesday. The sheriff’s office says it will remain until Wednesday at 1 p.m.

Drivers are urged to use extreme caution, as reduced visibility or zero visibility at times and snow-covered roads pose significant travel risks. Road and weather conditions will be monitored, and the travel advisory will be updated accordingly.

Orleans County Offices will be closed due to the ongoing Lake Effect Snow Warning and hazardous travel conditions caused by blowing and drifting snow. Essential employees still need to report to work at their scheduled times. 

The Orleans County Legislature meeting scheduled for Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. was postponed to Thursday at 4:30 p.m. Modern Disposal will still pick up trash. If this changes, it will be announced.  

Emergency services and essential personnel will continue to work. Residents are encouraged to stay informed through official county social media pages, county websites, and local media updates.
