After snow fell across much of the country this week, people were able to see if roads in Saline County were cleared by county crews before they ventured outdoors. In October of 2021, Saline County Road and Bridge installed technology that tracks the location of its snow-removal fleet. With the new technology comes the use of SnowPaths, a fleet-tracking tool that can be useful for residents hoping to know what the status of roads may be. “It allows for the citizens to see where our snowplows and motor graders have been during snow-removal events,” said Darren Fishel, the county road and bridge administrator. “That way, they can judge whether their road has been cleared or not.”
