HIGHWAY DEPT.
READY FOR STORMS

Although the Minnesota Highway
department has increased it's mileage
of snow fence and its plowing equip
ment, and is in better position this
year than ever before to open the
trunk highways quickly after storms,
a bulletin from the department caut-
ions motorists that it may no be pos
sible to keep all the highways open
all the time. Persons planning long
trips are cautioned to be prepared for
bad weather and possible delays.
The department this year bought
100000 feet of snow fence. With
fence previously purchased this makes
total of 3,547, 500 feet, or 672 miles,
Of protection against drifts. This
fence has been put up where pre-
vailing winds are most likely to cause
drifts. Snow fence alone will not
keep the roads open, however, for
many snow falls are heavy enough to
stop traffic even if there is no drifting
and sometimes winds from unex-
pected directions pile up drifts Then
the plows must be used
The department now owns zoo
heavy trucks with an equal number
of ''V" type plows. Motorized equip
ment is now used in maintenance
work, summer and winter, on about
three-fourths of the system. Here
the section man is employed the year
around, each man being responsible
for about Is miles of highway. The
snow plow is attached to the same
truck that is used to pull graders and
haul gravel in the summer. Where
team patrols are used in the sum-
mer, truck plows are operated from
district headquarters Or other con-
venient places.
The trucks and "V'' plows open the
roads very quickly after an ordinary
snow fall, but in case of deep drifts
the heavier but slower tractor plows
and rotaries must be used. The de-
partment owns blower type plows
attached to trucks, Is lateral type
rotaries, 40 heavy tractor plows, and
So heavy tractors. These are stationed
at central points in the various dis
trlcts and sent out wherever needed
The department, however, seldom
sends out plows during severe storm.
To do so only makes ridges which
cause deeper drifts The rule Is to
wait until the storm abates. Then
