[QUOTE="weimedog, post: 731348, member: 20655"] All ours are high use paved roads (mostly secondary highways) so we have to keep them clean. Also we are a very hilly area .. not mountains like where I used to live (Colorado) but lots of steep hills. The school bus routes have to be kept clean as possible during the hours they run. Most of the schools have used too many snow days and now are cutting back or eliminating winter break vacation. Thise school bus routes dictated our shifts. The state roads have to be kept clean as well per contract. The state wants coverage every 3 hours at a minimum for the duration of a storm until clean if possible. We have no dirt roads, some of the towns have those and they handle the grading. (When I was a excvation contractor in Colorado I did the maintenance on about 10 miles of dirt roads spread around three private subdivisions....I had a grader and a few dump trucks to resurface them every year.) The winters here are brutal as compared to where I was. The amount to percipitation is many times greater. The fequency is a competely different league. We plow non stop for weeks at a time trying to keep up. I looked at our last three weeks and we had 4 days where plows didn't have to go out. The frost heaving and water issues play havic with the roads. The summers are used to try and repair as much as times and budgets allow. Interestly enough Counties Highway Departments in southern New York simply don't have the snow (rough winters) therefore are much smaller in size and budget. Winters are the reason our towns and county highway departments are structured the way they are in CNY. [/QUOTE]
