Public Works crews treating residential neighborhoods overnight

(COLUMBIA, MO) -

We ramped up to a crew of 22 today and began treating residential neighborhoods in the afternoon. An 8 person crew will report at 7 p.m. First and Second Priority Streets have been treated but still have some damp spots. Crews will be watching for any potential refreeze overnight.

Crews are currently working in subdivisions. The plan is to continue to work in subdivisions through the night unless refreezing occurs on First and Second Priority Streets. If refreezing does occur, then crews will move from treating in the subdivisions back to treating Designated Snow Routes.

For the morning commute, winter driving conditions should be expected especially in subdivisions. Drivers should drive with extreme caution as black ice may develop overnight even on treated streets.
