Vancouver prepping roads for winter weather

An arctic cold front is making its way down the West Coast and temperatures are going to dip below freezing.
Vancouver is going to start pre-salting some major roads to keep you safe during your daily commute.
As the night progresses and it does get colder, then we’ll be concentrating on the major roads with salt and salt brine. As well we will be concentrating on bike routes as well,” explains Murray Wightman with the city.
He says the city wants to get a head start on the arrival of winter weather. “Ya that’s exactly what it is…Then if we do get snow later on through this week and into the weekend, we’ll certainly be ready and have the roads treated.”
He says when the snow does eventually hit the ground, you can help by unclogging the storm drains around your house to prevent the melted snow from pooling on the streets.
