INDY SNOW FORCE PREPARES FOR WINTER WEATHER
On November 12, Mayor Greg Ballard and Department of Public Works (DPW) Director David Sherman announced enhancements to the city’s snow removal plan that provides increased service capacity for the
2009/2010 winter snow season.
“We’ve made significant improvements in the way we deliver service to
residents, and we continue to build on those successes as we head
into this year’s snow season with a new approach to addressing winter weather challenges,” said Mayor Ballard. “New Indy Snow Force
trucks will be working night and day to keep Indianapolis moving safely when snow and ice are in the forecast.”
The city’s mission is to provide safe streets through efficient and
timely snow and ice control. Indy Snow Force will accomplish this
through more and better equipment and other resources, along with
more efficient management of staff time. The addition of 37 new snow
trucks replacing the oldest vehicles in the fleet, along with the upgrade of the snow removal contract staff, will allow DPW to provide city
residents better, faster, more efficient service. Learn More…
