Title:

Sixth International Symposium on Snow Removal and Ice Control Technology

Abstract:

The Sixth International Symposium on Snow Removal and Ice Control Technology was held in June 2004. The objective of the symposium was to provide a forum for the exchange of information about the state of the art and the state of the practice in research and technology applications to improve snow removal and ice control operations in transportation systems. This symposium included papers and presentations on winter weather (information, models, and data quality); winter maintenance (policy, management, and performance); customers' perspectives on winter operations; environmental stewardship; winter maintenance vehicle advancements; bridge support systems; winter pavement temperatures and road conditions; material distribution, performance and residual; and, large-volume snow control.
