PLANO, Texas, Oct. 12, 2020 – North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) snowplow operators sharpened their skills on a hot, sunny day at “Snow School.” Drivers have been training by plowing mulch (a warm weather stand-in for snow) to prepare for actual snow and ice removal when cold weather comes.
For B-roll of the event, including sound with Michael Rey, North Texas Tollway Authority and Spanish sound with Santiago Peralta, North Texas Tollway Authority, click HERE.
This important training allows NTTA operators to perfect their skills in a safe environment prior to the pressure and safety challenges of frozen precipitation.
To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, Snow School classes are smaller and masks are required for two-crew trucks.
NTTA reminds the driving public that snowplow and sand truck operators need a wide berth during actual operations. This will ensure the safety of both operators and motorists using NTTA roadways affected by snow and ice.
