ODOT Inspects Equipment For Winter Driving Season

11/20/18 – 12:11 P.M.

Winter arrives in about a month, but the winter driving season is already here. With that in mind, Hancock County ODOT garage manager Dedra Noel and her crew inspected all their equipment Tuesday to make sure it is ready to go. Of course, we already saw one icy morning this season. Noel says the equipment functioned fine even though it was before the regular inspection day.

Noel says one thing to watch for this winter driving season is plows in the construction zone on I-75. She says with tight quarters already, it’s a much better idea to follow behind the plow than it is to try and pass it.
