This is Woodbridge Mayor John McCormac.
As of this afternoon, the Township has not received any additional confirmed cases of Coronavirus though we are aware of a number of residents who are being currently evaluated.
The New Jersey Department of Health has activated a special information Hotline to handle COVID-19 calls. Residents can dial 211 or text NJCOVID to 898211 to receive information and to stay informed. That’s dial 211 or text NJCOVID to 898211.
The Woodbridge Police Department, Fire Departments and First Aid Squads remain fully staffed and operational 24/7.
All Township buildings remain closed but residents can still transact business with municipal employees by phone, by mail or on-line.
All Township phone numbers and contact information can be found in your quarterly newsletter, Public Works calendars or through our Township web site. All Township employees have an email address with their first name dot last name @ twp.woodbridge.nj.us.
Any payments to the Township by check can be made in the Drop Box outside of Town Hall.
Senior transportation remains operational but only for medical appointments or food shopping and only by appointment.
Garbage and recycling collection remains on the normal schedule and our Convenience Center remains open.
Our parks and playgrounds remain open and we are sanitizing all equipment but please use any additional precautions you deem necessary when using the equipment.
Please check our web site and Facebook pages this afternoon for a comprehensive list of pharmacies and food stores that offer delivery services with contact information. We will also indicate all restaurants that remain open for take-out and delivery services.
We cannot stress enough that if you live near a homebound senior or any other resident living alone, please take the time to call them or somehow check on them to be sure they are safe. If you can print out the list of pharmacies, food stores and restaurants and bring it to them please do so.
Please continue to follow the national recommendations to wash your hands frequently, cough or sneeze into your sleeve, practice social distancing and certainly stay home if you are sick. Please follow the Governor’s recommendations about limiting unnecessary travel around town.
It is important to know that the national effort to count all residents continues despite the Coronavirus.
