Boundaries:

Phase 1, which was completed on September 7th, uses the powerlines on Laurel, Wolf Swamp, Burbank, Bliss and Converse as the borders of the eruv.

The Eruv encompasses much of Longmeadow, MA, and small portions of Springfield and East Longmeadow. The eruv is scheduled for three phases. Phase 1 is in Purple, Phase 2 is in Blue, and Phase 3 is in Red. The new Eruv is based almost entirely on the electric wires around Longmeadow. 95% of the time the electric poles serve as lechis (halachic doorposts), but occasionally (about 20 times) we will be using external lechis, either attached to the poles or situated off of the pole.

Please note: The Eruv phases as defined on the map are tentative and the schedule for construction is still not finalized. We highly recommend that you DO NOT move into any area with an expectation that the eruv will encompass your house until that portion of the Eruv is completed.
