INDOT ready for weekend snow

The Greenfield District will have over 100 plow trucks in operation this weekend for snow-fighting activities. The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) reminds motorists to be cautious while traveling.

The National Weather Service is predicting approximately two to four inches of snow through Saturday around the Greenfield District, which includes Hamilton County. 179 trucks will be available as maintenance crews continue to monitor the weather through the weekend.

Current pavement temperatures are between 14 and 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Expected hazards are slick roads and reduced visibility in heavy snowfall.
