Northwest Missouri is receiving more snow again and Missouri Department of
Transportation crews are working hard to make all state roads safe and passable.
As snow plows clear the roadways, plowed snow may end up blocking private
drives. MoDOT's priority is to clear the roadway, but offers some tips you can
do to keep the plowed snow from your driveway.
Pile snow that has been shoveled from the driveway on the DOWNSTREAM side of
the driveway. Plow blades will then push snow into the area just before your
driveway, leaving a much smaller amount in the entrance. Remember to have the
snow removed away from the entrance far enough to allow one to see oncoming
traffic when entering the highway.
More information on keeping your driveway clear is available at this link: www.modot.org/road_conditions/keepdrivewayclear.htm.
For more information about this or for updated road conditions, call
1-888-ASK-MODOT (888-275-6636) or visit www.modot.org/northwest and view the online Traveler
Information Map. In addition, MoDOT provides updated information on Twitter
