"This synthesis report will be of interest to transportation agency maintenance engineers, managers, and operators and others involved with roadway snow and ice control including safety engineers, traffic engineers, and law enforcement agency personnel. It presents information on the state of the practice in managing roadway snow and ice control considering both rural and urban locations. The document describes the developments that have occurred during the past 20 years to improve winter maintenance. This report of the Transportation Research Board discusses winter maintenance policies and provides examples for state, city, and county agencies. Included in the discussion of winter maintenance policies are issues such as: levels of service, public relations, liability for services, and experimenting with new policies. Additional information is included on estimating winter maintenance benefits and costs; personnel and management issues; weather information systems; and materials, equipment, and facilities for winter maintenance."--Avant-propos.

The objective of the symposium was to provide a forum for the exchange of information about state-of-the-art research and technology applications to improve snow removal and ice control operations in transportation systems. Sixty-one papers were presented in the areas of policy and management, infrastructure and snow control, materials and applications, equipment, travel surface, environment and health, road weather information systems and forecasting, and safety and visibility. Papers were authored by maintenance engineers and researchers from Austria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Twenty-one of these papers are included in this publication.

This report contains 56 conference papers pertaining to snow removal and ice control research including Canadian research and equipment. Several of the papers are concerned with deicing salts--their effectiveness, their impact on the environment, and possible alternatives to them. Alternative methods of deicing discussed herein include: heating of bridge decks, increasing coefficient of friction between tires and pavement surfaces, use of high intensity lights, and advent of less corrosive chemicals. There are also several papers that address the problem of snow and ice accretion on power wires, guideway systems, sign boards, and etc. There is considerable attention given to development of computer programs and models for predicting scope of snow and ice control operations and for evaluating their effectiveness. Also, several papers discuss new developments in snow removal equipment and the cost of operation and maintenance.
