Division Highlight – Snow Plows
West Jordan is ready to tackle the snow this winter, ensuring safe streets for residents and emergency services. Here are the highlights of the city’s snow removal efforts:
- Hundreds of Lane Miles: Every snowstorm means clearing a few hundred lane miles across the city, a crucial task to maintain safety.
- Neighborhood Plow Crews: New this year, crews dedicated to neighborhood streets will work alongside mainline plows for faster, more efficient snow removal.
- Coordinated Response: Mainline and neighborhood crews are dispatched simultaneously, ensuring quicker coverage citywide.
- Shift Rotations: Snow removal teams work in 12-hour shifts, maintaining a continuous operation to clear all streets.
- Snowplow Tracking Software: A new tracking system helps crews monitor progress, ensuring no street is missed.
- Salt Brine Application: Pre-treating main roads with a salt brine solution prevents ice and improves plowing efficiency.
How You Can Help:
- Keep vehicles off the streets during snowstorms so plows can operate safely and effectively.
- Wait 24 hours after a storm ends before reporting missed streets to allow crews to finish their routes.
With your cooperation, West Jordan is committed to keeping our roads safe and accessible this winter!
