DelDOT: Focus Turns to Secondary Roads Today


The primary roads are improving as temperatures are rising above freezing and melting is taking place. Spokesman for DelDOT C.R. McLeod tells the Talk of Delmarva’s Mike Bradley what the goal is for DelDOT crews today…


The goal is also to get into the subdivisions as well –ones they are responsible for. To report any problem spots or a specific issue, dial # 777 from your mobile phone. That will connect you with the Transportation Management Center, which is answered by a live person around the clock.
The second winter storm of the season like last time dumped several inches of snow on Delmarva. The difference with this storm is that drivers have been dealing with a heavy wet snow, but temperatures, unlike in the first storm, are rising above freezing right away. So, the snow is melting faster, but as spokesman C.R. McLeod tells the Talk of Delmarva’s Mike Bradley program, it’s still going to be messy…
Though ice won’t be a problem, you may encounter quite a bit of slush on the roads. McCleod says the primary roads have greatly improved, and now the goal today is to clear the secondary roads and subdivisions.聽

He says soon as the secondary roads are treated, they will move into those subdivisions.
