The South Carolina Department of Transportation has mobilized crews across the state to prepare for possible snow and ice impacts from Winter Storm Cora.
“SCDOT crews are preparing equipment and pre-treating roads across the state while we continue to monitor the forecast,”
Secretary of Transportation Justin Powell said in a release. “We want our community members to know that SCDOT stands ready to respond to any winter weather to keep South Carolinians moving.”
Crews are pretreating the roads across the state in areas that could be affected by winter weather. SCDOT asks that drivers slow down and give crews space to work.
The potential for ice and snow means hazardous driving conditions. As weather conditions deteriorate, people are encouraged to stay off the roads if they don’t have to travel, plan their route in advance and travel with caution if they do have to.
