DSNY Winter Storm Preparations

  • 🗓️ Preparations for the winter storm began last night at midnight, with the pre-treatment of highways and on/off ramps using a liquid brine solution.
  • 💧 Over 700 miles of roadways were treated to help with snow and ice bonding and accumulation suppression.
  • 🚚 All snow trucks have been plowed, outfitted, and salt spreaders loaded to capacity.

Snow Plowing and Salting Operations

  • ❄️ Salting operations commence as soon as snow begins to fall and roadways start to get covered.
  • 🌨️ All salt spreaders are currently out on their designated routes.
  • 🚜 Plowing operations are initiated once approximately two inches of snow accumulation is observed on the roadways.
