  • Maintains all roadside signage in accordance with PennDOT regulations.
  • Performs roadside mowing on all local roadways.

Upper Hanover Township is extremely proud of the work these four employees perform on a daily basis and the work they accomplish under the leadership of Jayme Benfield.    It is critical that the public obey road signs alerting them to work being performed and to slow down in work zones.  Thank you in advance for helping us keep our employees safe.
