NWS Winter Safety Week:
🛣️ Plows treat main, continuous lanes first. High-speed exit ramps, interchange loops & side streets stay icy much longer. Slow down early when exiting! #STLDriving #MoDOT #I70 #I64 #I270 #TrafficSafety #stlwx

James plows in downtown Columbia during snow/ice. He also plows at @Mizzou and around Boone Hospital so the ambulances can be safe. James and I are in a brand new Columbia @pub_works plow. It has rubber blades to protect downtown sidewalks. I will have more on "Wake Up Missouri".
Thank you, @Brianontheair!
UPDATE: Columbia @pub_works plow drivers have been out this morning for today's annual dry snow run to prepare for winter. I am riding with 18-year plow veteran James. He urges you to slow down in snow, to give plow drivers room and to leave early and stay safe. @939TheEagle
