They are on the job when it snows and stay on the job until the snowstorm is over and the roads are clear. Many times they are out pushing snow and spreading salt and anti-skid for long long hours.
The Road Department also cuts grass and vegetation along the road banks. Overgrown vegetation can block the view of drivers at intersections and curves.
They also fill pot holes and tar and chip the roads. Tar and chip is a common maintenance procedure for secondary roads.
