Abstract

Many provincial, municipal and private road authorities are being proactive in managing road salt use. Their efforts are on many fronts including: reviewing levels of service; refining plow and spreader routes; improving documentation and recordkeeping; improving training; improving equipment; improving decisionmaking; improving material storage and handling practices; and factoring salt vulnerable areas into management practices. This paper will present experiences with how a wide range of road authorities are improving their practices. The paper will include anecdotal information from operations managers on what improvements provided the best salt management results. For the covering abstract of the conference see ITRD number E211521.
