Snowplows, graders and other vehicles used for winter maintenance will patrol municipal roads during training exercises today through Oct. 28.
The test run of winter vehicles and equipment is an opportunity for crews to identify potential hazards, obstacles and operational challenges that can be addressed prior to the winter season. Most snow clearing vehicles are outfitted with Automatic Vehicle Locator (AVL) units that allow supervisors to track vehicle location, speed and equipment function.
Residents who have questions about this training exercise are asked to call 3-1-1 for municipal services.
