NORFOLK, VA – Public Works crews spent Wednesday prepping equipment ahead of a snowy Friday forecast. Norfolk has ready:
- 23 Plow Trucks
- 16 Pickup Trucks fitted with Plows
- 21 Spreaders
- 4 Salt Brine Distributor Trucks
- 5 Loaders
- 8 Backhoes
- 2,300 tons of bulk salt
- 900 tons of sand
- 10,000 gallons of brine
Beginning Thursday, crews will work 12-hour shifts. As conditions deteriorate, crews will keep an eye on bridges and overpasses and treat if necessary.
If two inches of snow falls, plows will clear bridges/overpasses, main roadways and other high-priority areas first. Plows do not clear neighborhood streets.
Trash and recycling will take place as scheduled on Thursday and Friday.
