 | PennDOT maintains nearly 40,000 miles of roads and 25,000 bridges statewide which translates into nearly 96,000 snow-lane miles – enough to circle the globe nearly four times! To tackle this task, PennDOT uses more than 2,250 trucks, plows and salt spreaders, operated by 5,400 licensed department operators. The department also rents about 270 trucks and their operators to assist with snow removal operations. During last year's winter, PennDOT used 384,931tons of anti-skid and 454,228 tons of salt to help keep Pennsylvania drivers moving. | |
