Winter rough ahead for Frederick County road crews
Frederick County has used about half its overtime hours for snowplow drivers with six storms consuming 60 of 125 hours per driver. Assistant highway chief Donald Crum says a milder second half is hoped for as funding was reallocated to buy 1500 tons of salt and cinders and to budget 25 extra overtime hours. Plows must clear 1200 miles of county roads and almanac forecasts suggest five snowfalls in January.
