YEARS AGO. THE THREAT OF SNOW THIS WEEK
HAS SOME ASKING IF PORTLAND
PLANS TO USE SALT ON THE ROADS.

PART OF THIS YEAR'S PLAN.

WHEN AND WHERE CREWS PLAN TO
USE IT.
USE IT.
USE IT. >> Reporter: IF YOU'RE NEW TO
PORTLAND, YOU MAY BE SURPRISED
TO LEARN THAT CREWS JUST
STARTED USING SALT ON THE ROADS
IN 2017.
IN 2017.
IN 2017. IT'S BACK THIS YEAR, SO LET'S
VERIFY SOME COMMON QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS ABOUT WHEN AND
WHERE THEY USE SALT ON THE
ROAD.
ROAD.
ROAD. SO
ROAD. SO NUMBER ONE, WHERE DOES PDOT
USE ROAD SALT?
THE ANSWER HERE, ROADS MOST
PRONE TO CLOSURE DURING WINTER
STORMS, INCLUDING STEEP HILLS,
HOSPITAL ROUTES AND DOWNTOWN.
SO THERE IS THIS GREAT MAP ON
THE PORTLAND BUREAU OF
TRANSPORTATION SITE, AND IT
SHOWS YOU IN REALTIME WHERE
THEY USE PLOWS AND DE-ICER AND
SALT WHEN IT SNOWS.
SO YOU CAN SEE THE PURPLE AREA.
THAT IS WHERE THEY PLAN TO USE
SALT.
SALT.
SALT. SO
SALT. SO HERE IS THE WEST HILLS.
HERE'S A REALLY STEEP HILL AT
FREMONT AND 33rd.
THEN THEY'LL ALSO PLAN TO SALT
IN THE MT. TAKER AREA.
I'D DEFINITELY BOOK MARK THIS
MAP OR CHECK KEEG.COM.
WHEN WILL SALT BE USED ON THE
ROAD?
ROAD?
ROAD? IT
ROAD? IT DEPENDS ON TEMPERATURE.
SALT WORKS GREAT AT 30 DEGREES
FAHRENHEIT, BUT IT CAN LOSE
SOME OF ITS EFFECTIVENESS BELOW
20 DEGREES.
20 DEGREES. OUR NEXT QUESTION, WHAT ELSE
DOES PDOT USE TO TREAT ROADS?
SAND, DE-ICER AND PLOWS.
PLENTY OF THAT ALL ON STANDBY.
AND OUR LAST QUESTION, I THREW
THIS IN THERE BECAUSE WE GOT
THIS A LOT LAST YEAR, WHO IS
RESPONSIBLE FOR CLEARING AND
SALT THE SIDEWALKS?
VERY SIMPLE ANSWER HERE, YOU
ARE.
ARE.
ARE. PROPERTY OWNERS ARE RESPONSIBLE
FOR CLEARING THEIR SIDEWALKS
AND IF SOMEONE DOES FALL AND
GET HURT ON YOUR SIDEWALK, YOU
COULD BE HELD LIABLE.
DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING YOU WANT
US TO VERIFY.
