COLLEGEVILLE, Pa. (WPVI) — If you drive around Collegeville, you will see mountains of snow on the shoulders. But inside the lanes, most roads are wet but clear.
Secondary streets in neighborhoods appear in good condition.
During a press conference at a PennDOT facility in Bucks County on Monday, Governor Josh Shapiro praised the public.
“They stayed off the roads to give PennDOT an opportunity to get out and clear the roads, and so we really want to thank the public,” said Shapiro.
He also commended crews across the state for their relentless work over the past day and a half. Supply issues with salt also had many municipalities concerned.
PennDOT’s District 6, which covers our area, is well-stocked. Crews started the storm with 70,000 tons. There is no figure on salt usage yet with this storm, but the state has been helping smaller towns and boroughs with logistics and supplies.
“We have been assisting some townships to get through the event until they get their orders in. In a lot of cases, they don’t have near the storage capacity that we do,” said Tom Rogal with PennDOT.
The ice with this storm created concerns about power lines going down, but the region came away largely unscathed.
