Columbia Public Works crews to conduct annual dry snow run Tuesday

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The City of Columbia plans to do its annual dry snow run training exercise Tuesday. Public Works crews will use the exercise as an opportunity to review safety procedures and practice their snow routes in order to better prepare for winter.

Most participants of the exercise will depart from the Grissum Building, 1313 Lakeview Ave., which is the headquarters for snow operations. Others will start at the Leroy Anderson Salt Dome, 1101 Big Bear Blvd., where the City stores its plows, equipment and road treatment materials.

When accumulations are less than 4 inches, crews focus on priority routes during normal business hours but will go into other residential areas if time and conditions on priority routes allow.
