INDOT preparing for winter weather at Terre Haute

Monday, October 16, 2006

At a time when most Hoosiers try to put their thoughts of winter weather out of their minds, Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) crews are preparing for the possibility of snow and ice storms. INDOT inspectors travelled to INDOT's Terre Haute Subdistrict this morning to perform an annual inspection of subdistrict snow and ice equipment. The Terre Haute Subdistrict maintains the state roads in Vigo, Clay, Owen, Parke and Vermillion counties.

Similar inspections are taking place this month at INDOT offices across the state.
