GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ)- Green Bay Public Works spent Monday morning taking steps to get ahead of the storm.
Crews were out in the morning hours salting the main roads in preparation for what was coming in the evening. Chris Pirlot says they decided to get ahead of the weather, and that helped when the roads started freezing.
“We also used a salt and sand mix to cover some areas of the residental roads for traction.”
Pirlot said that is something that is not always done.
The plan throughout the rest of the ice storm is to react to the conditons. Pirlot said by salting in the morning, it really gave them a better chance of maintaining the roads better.
