City crews pretreated Salina streets with road salt and Magnesium Chloride (MgC12) brine beginning at noon Wednesday, January 5. Crews were activated again at 11 pm and began plowing operations with eight plow trucks and two motor graders at midnight. The following screenshot represents the subsequent six-hour period for City plow trucks clearing arterial and collector streets throughout Salina. Plow trucks also spread additional road salt with the MGC12 brine.
The day shift will continue monitoring and addressing arterial and collector streets as needed and switch their focus to residential streets this morning. The night crew will then follow up with additional route maintenance on plowed streets and clear City parking lots. Once road route clearing operations conclude, crews will begin picking up snow windrows Downtown, if necessary.
