Winter Maintenance

Roadside Brushing - safer roads ahead
Roadside brushing plays an important role in maintaining safe road conditions.
- Improves Visibility: Helps maintain clear sightlines around curves and intersections so motorists can better see approaching traffic, pedestrians, cyclists and wildlife.
- Keeps Road Signs Visible: Prevents overgrown vegetation from obstructing stop signs, yield signs, speed limit signs and other important road signage.
- Reduces Hazards: Removes deadwood, weak branches and overgrown brush that may pose hazards during high winds, ice storms or heavy snowfall.
- Supports Natural De-Icing: Allows more sunlight and airflow to reach road surfaces, helping reduce icy patches and dry standing water.
Supports Winter Maintenance:** Creates additional space along roadsides and ditches for snow accumulation, helping snowplows maintain safe and accessible driving lanes.
