Mountain Top News spoke with Chief District Engineer District 12 Mary Westfall Holbrook about what steps they have taken and what residents can do to stay safe. Well yesterday and the day before we started putting brown on the road to get it ready for the snow. And today our trucks are loaded with salt and calcium chloride and we are just waiting for the storm to hit. Transportation officials are also recommending to keep blankets, food and water in your car and keep your phone charged in case of an emergency. If there's any way that you can go home if your employer lets you, the all state offices buildings are closing at 12 today in view of this storm that's coming. Let's try to get home as soon as we can, but most importantly let's be calm, give us room out there on the roads. Just pay attention to where you're at, pay attention to the car in front of you and the car behind you. Most importantly, slow down and lay your phone down. Residents are encouraged to stay off the roads as the storm hits and most importantly to have patience. Again I would just like to ask the public to be patient with our guys out there on the road. I know that you hear this from me all the time, but really just be patient, stay off your phone and most importantly if you see a snow plow, watch where it's at. Don't crowd it and watch your other drivers. For Mountain Top News, this is Brianna Robinson.
