Winter roads: Why you may not see excess salt on the roads

Posted by Fred Steiner on Wednesday, February 12, 2014

Some people learn best by seeing the end result of our actions.

The next time you are travelling down Route 30 or 75, take a look at the trees growing along the sides of the highway. Are the evergreens looking brown, especially toward the ground? There is a good chance that those trees are suffering from the salt spray that is projected off the highway by vehicles.
