Agencies across North American face increasing challenges in winter maintenance. Many agencies have added liquids, brines and blends to their tool box to combat this. Join us as we discuss the past, present and future of liquid use in winter maintenance. We will look at the technology and the liquids that have been available over the years, followed by an exploration of current practices that have proven successful.

The program will wrap up with a discussion on the future of liquids and the associated technology used for successful snow and ice control. This program is brought to you by the Winter Maintenance Subcommittee of the APWA Transportation Committee, it will focus on anti-icing and the use of liquids and methods for blending. Attention will be given to the past, present and future of liquid use in winter maintenance. Come see how liquids can expand the tools in your agency’s toolbox.

After viewing this program, participants will be better able to:

Discuss where liquids started in winter maintenance.
Explain the current practices that are being used.
Evaluate new liquids and technology that are available in the market.
